Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the hospital costs not covered by social insurance are governed by public law and could be claimed on the basis of the hospital’s terms.
Decisione estratta
Yes. Under § 19(2) SpiG, remuneration for uncovered services is governed by public law; the hospital’s 2015 terms applied.
Motivazione estratta
The court held that the patient had no recognized Swiss insurance coverage and was therefore a self-payer. The hospital’s tariff terms, including the deposit and cost-recovery rules, governed the claim.
