Fill your prescription without cash

With your SWICA Insurance Card, you can fill your prescriptions at Swiss pharmacies without having to pay in cash. The amount is settled directly between the pharmacy and SWICA. In case that a co-payment applies, SWICA will bill you for the amount later.

Medical emergencies abroad

You can request help if you experience an emergency abroad. SWICA can, for example, issue cover notes for hospital treatment. If you find yourself in a medical emergency which requires your immediate return to Switzerland, our specialists will discuss the matter with local doctors and arrange for your safe repatriation.

The reverse side of the card is the European insurance card. It enables doctors, hospitals and other providers to settle the costs of emergency treatment within the EU/EFTA area with SWICA directly, which means you won’t have to make any payment – except for eventual co-payments.
