Question juridique clé
Whether the insurer was barred from pursuing unpaid premiums because the OAMal deadlines in Art. 105b had expired.
Solution extraite
No. The deadlines are ordering provisions; missing them does not forfeit the claim or the enforcement proceedings.
Motifs extraits
Art. 105b OAMal is meant to prevent undue delay in collection. Its only consequence is that the sanction under Art. 64a para. 2 LAMal does not take effect; it does not prevent continuation of enforcement.
