Supplementary insurance (LCA) in Romanel-sur-Lausanne: what matters

Unlike basic insurance, supplementary cover is a free contractual product: each insurer defines its own benefits, premiums and conditions. Two policies at the same price can cover very differently in Romanel-sur-Lausanne — for hospital stays (private/semi-private, free choice of doctor), dental treatment, complementary medicine, glasses or maternity. So compare benefit by benefit against your actual needs, not just on price.

Two things to know: supplementary insurance is optional and can be taken out or cancelled independently of basic insurance. And the insurer may — unlike under the LAMal — ask health questions, add exclusions or reject an application. So sign up while young and healthy, and answer the health questions truthfully (otherwise you risk losing benefits).

Check before you sign

  • Your real priorities: hospital, dental, complementary medicine, glasses, maternity?
  • Annual limits, waiting periods and exclusions of each benefit.
  • Avoid double cover (e.g. with employer or credit-card benefits).
  • How the premium develops with age, and the cancellation terms.
