How much would you pay as a single person? And what does it cover? If you have a family, premiums increase significantly.
In NL, €150 doesn’t cover emergency care, dental, eyes, or various specialists. Medicines and treatments are also part of the deductible.

- yunohn 5y agoWow, 400 CHF is a lot! NL does guarantee emergency treatment will be provided, and the excess above the deductible will be paid by the insurer. Aside, I’ve had friends who moved and found that Swiss income taxes are also much lower than NL in most cantons. Is that true in your case too?
- seanmcdirmid 5y agoI haven’t lived in Switzerland for awhile but ya, their taxes are somewhat low, though I think their VAT must be high (hard to tell if it’s taxes or just a high COL). As an American, it gets harder to live in Switzerland because of the lower tax rate and high COL once you break through the foreign earned income exemption.
