BERN - Between the spring and summer sessions, the health office said talks with insurers, doctors and cantons on cost control had not yet produced a bundle that could survive the June sitting. Premiums for 2025 are already in force. The political instrument is late on purpose, opponents said, and late by accident, supporters said.
Elisabeth Baume-Schneider's line remains that costs can be slowed without cutting quality. Providers hear a price cut. Insurers hear a delay.
June will not finish it
The summer session has farm, transport and digital-identity files as well. Health will get hours, not a miracle. Households already did the maths in January.
