Kernrechtsfrage
Whether disease-related additional costs, especially medically prescribed diet expenses, were sufficiently proven under Art. 16 VVo III to justify sickness benefits.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The insured person sufficiently showed that medically required diet created ordinary additional daily costs that should be covered by the sickness benefit.
Extrahierte Begründung
For special diets, exact proof of every extra expense is practically impossible. It is enough that the health condition and medical prescription make such additional costs obvious; for a diabetic after heart attack, daily extra costs of at least CHF 4 are common knowledge.
