Learn about the advantages provided by your insurance card and what to do if you lose it.
You can order your insurance card online. You can also access your digital insurance card in mySWICA at any time.
By presenting your SWICA insurance card, you can pick up prescription medications in Swiss pharmacies without cash. Billing is settled directly between the pharmacy and SWICA. SWICA will then invoice you for any co-payment.
When you’re abroad, you can ask for help in emergencies: SWICA can for example issue cover notes for hospital treatments. If you experience a medical emergency that requires rapid transport back to Switzerland, specialists will consult with local doctors to ensure your safe return.
The back of the card features the European Health Insurance Card. This enables doctors and hospitals etc. in the EU/EFTA to settle the treatment costs for medical emergencies directly with SWICA. Any co-payment will be invoiced to you in accordance with foreign law.
