Mandatory Health Insurance

This chapter offers an in-depth look at health politics and the mandatory health insurance system in Switzerland. It traces the development of the Swiss healthcare system, characterized by the strong role of the cantons and private stakeholder organizations in managing the system as well as the reliance on voluntary private insurance for most of the twentieth century. Since 1994, when a law on mandatory health insurance was adopted, the main issues in Swiss healthcare politics have been increasing costs, managed competition, the introduction of case-based payment, and healthcare governance. Switzerland’s consociational political system, with its instruments of direct democracy, federalism, and corporatist interest representation, impedes the development of consensus across the left–right divide about whether the health system should rely more on market mechanisms and individual responsibility or on state control and universal coverage.
