Frequently asked questions about private Spitex

  • What is Spitex?

    The term "Spitex" is only used in German-speaking Switzerland and is an abbreviation for home help and care. On the one hand, this form of outpatient care at home is cheaper than inpatient care. On the other hand, it is of course much more pleasant for the person being cared for to remain in their familiar surroundings for as long as possible and to be cared for there.
  • What are the advantages of private Spitex?

    • High quality standards
    • Costs the same as for public Spitex
    • More flexible and versatile
    • Focus on the individual and not on needs
    • more personal through personal care

    We have summarized the advantages of private Spitex.

  • What is the difference between private and public Spitex?

    In Switzerland, Spitex services are offered by public providers, private companies and independent care professionals.

    Thepublic Spitex organizations are commissioned and financed by the municipalities and cantons. They have a care mandate and therefore also a duty to ensure that every Swiss citizen receives the basic care services they need, regardless of their place of residence, age and social class.

    Private Spitex organizations also provide the necessary basic care services, but also more flexible, versatile and comprehensive services in the areas of nursing, care and housekeeping. Their clients are the clients themselves or their relatives.

    Detailed overview of private and public Spitex organizations

  • What is Special Spitex?

    In addition to "classic" Spitex, where outpatient care is required due to age or accidents, there is also special Spitex, where special needs and therefore special knowledge or behaviors are required due to medical conditions. Special Spitex includes the following:

    Dementia, psychosocial care, oncology, palliative care, paraplegia, care for children and adolescents.

    For these cases, the employees of a Spitex organization are continuously trained in the professional handling of the special clinical pictures as well as in the areas of housekeeping and care. This is the only way to meet the special needs of clients with special care requirements.

  • Are the costs of private Spitex covered by health insurance?

    Regardless of whether you choose a public or private Spitex organization, around 90% of the costs for consultation, basic and treatment costs are covered by health insurance.

    Depending on the canton, the patient must pay a daily rate of CHF 7.65 in Zurich and CHF 13.35 in Aargau. Depending on the deductible, additional costs may be incurred until the deductible limit is reached.

    You can find all prices under Tariffs. Please note that we will advise you in detail regarding the assumption of costs by your health insurance company.
