Is the check-up covered by Swiss health insurance?
Ahead is collaborating with KPT, which reimburses up to CHF 1'500 of the scan under the KPT Pulse Top or Premium supplementary insurance plans.
Generally, mandatory basic health insurance (KVG/LaMal) in Switzerland does not cover the cost of Ahead's full-body preventive scans.
However, some supplementary health insurances ("Zusatzversicherungen" / "assurances complémentaires") may cover a portion of the costs. The extent of coverage is specific to your insurance provider and your particular plan.
We highly recommend contacting your insurance company before your scan to clarify potential reimbursement.
Ahead Health can provide you with a template letter or a pro-forma invoice to assist with your inquiry.
Next to KPT, based on customer experiences, potential partial coverage has been noted with plans from:
- Sanitas
- CSS
- Sympany
Also, this is highly dependent on the specific supplementary plan. Some insurers, like Helsana, SWICA, General Mutuel may not cover the check-up under their supplementary plans.
Please check with your insurance if the blood tests are covered separately to the MRI, some may cover partial costs of the blood test.
You can also email get@aheadhealth.com with your insurer and policy details for a pre-check on typical reimbursement.
