We pay a lot for it in our taxes, but then many things don't cost after that. For example, we've had to get many vaccines for an upcoming trip to Africa and most of that was covered. When my daughter broke her wrist, ALL of that was covered. <br /><br />But, if we want our teeth cleaned we have to pay for that ourselves (our daughter is free though) and it costs about $170.<br /><br />I haven't checked into eye care yet. But I need to!<br /><br />Ice Charadeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14338292086135826226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33066213.post-83533234836837569812012-11-19T20:09:15.821+01:002012-11-19T20:09:15.821+01:00Yes that is one great thing about insurance here--...Yes that is one great thing about insurance here--every adult pays the same price--whether you are 30 or 90. <br /><br />I had the same issue with a pre-existing condition. In my case, I had to switch from expatriate insurance to Swiss insurance mid-pregnancy. Great thing: the Swiss couldn't refuse me! But I was only allowed to sign up for the basic insurance. This turned out to be just fine. Most other costs (like private hospital room) can be paid for out of pocket if you want those things. Swiss insurance has very good coverage for pregnant women--you pay nothing out of your deductible for normal procedures.Chantalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08116587046045234305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33066213.post-67976193715501821622012-11-19T09:07:58.271+01:002012-11-19T09:07:58.271+01:00One important aspect often neglected or unknown by...One important aspect often neglected or unknown by expats is that tariffs are fixed by insurer and age group. <br /><br />I had the rather unfortunate luck of getting HIV while living here and my mandatory healthcare costs will not go to exorbitant prices next year. Complimentary insurance, which convert hospital costs, however is impossible to change now. Insurers may charge whatever they want and even refuse complimentary coverage to people with chronic diseases.<br /><br />On the other hand they can't refuse basic coverage or charge more than anyone else my age. If I were in US, they could refuse to cover me for preexisting conditions and raise my costs over time, that's why I won't be moving back. That, plus chocolate :-) Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33066213.post-4826662367601283532012-11-15T14:35:35.991+01:002012-11-15T14:35:35.991+01:00Hi Sam,
