It can be a good idea to request a second medical opinion when you’re faced with the prospect of a far-reaching and complicated medical procedure.
For instance:
Opinions are often divided when it comes to elective surgery, which means there may be a better solution out there which is more tailored to your individual needs.
You choose
Your first point of contact is always your personal advisor. Your personal advisor coordinates with your medical care advisor. Your medical care advisor contacts you for a phone consultation. You explain the situation and choose whether you want a second medical opinion by phone, in writing or in person.
Our partner
We offer this service in cooperation with our partner Medgate, the Hirslanden Private Hospital Group and the Swiss Medical Network.
Most hospitals with a maternity ward offer family rooms. However there aren’t many available and they’re in great demand. Wherever possible, we’ll help organise a family room for you and cover the costs of accommodation for an accompanying person. This gives you the opportunity to spend the first days and nights together with your newborn in the protected environment of the hospital.
Important: make sure you contact your personal customer advisor as soon as possible if you’d like to use a family room after the birth.
A stay in hospital always involves organisation. Your customer advisor will be happy to help you arrange your stay, starting from helping you choose the best hospital, doctor and method of treatment right through to organising your trip to hospital.
