Health insurance offices (LAMal)

Entrepreneurs need to get national insurance for themselves and any employees. Overview of health insurance offices. 

Health insurance offices do not distinguish between employed persons and self-employed persons. Health insurance offices providing mandatory basic insurance and optional additional insurance cover medical costs. A financial contribution from the employer to health insurance costs is unusual. For people without accident insurance (for example, people not in employment), the costs associated with an accident may also be paid by health insurance offices.
