The services we provide for you go beyond those of public Spitex.
We will be happy to offer you a service according to your wishes.
SpitexCare is a private Spitex organization with its own concordat number. Medically prescribed services are paid for by the health insurance companies (according to the cost credit agreement) and are exempt from VAT (as of January 1, 2021). The law (Art. 7a KLV) on care financing requires customers to pay a patient contribution of 10% of the costs for services subject to compulsory health insurance, in addition to the normal deductible and franchise.

Clients generally pay for services that are not covered by health insurance themselves. Certain areas can be covered by private supplementary insurance; if you don't want any surprises, contact your health insurance provider in advance.
Uncovered Spitex services can be reimbursed under certain circumstances via supplementary benefits. People of AHV age (Old-age and survivors' insurance) are also entitled to a helplessness allowance under certain conditions; information is available from the relevant AHV/IV offices or the social counseling services of the municipalities.
