Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the Court of Social Insurance had jurisdiction over the dispute about daily benefits under a supplementary health insurance contract governed by the VVG.
Decisione estratta
No. The dispute concerned a private-law supplementary insurance matter, so ordinary civil courts had jurisdiction and the social insurance court had to decline jurisdiction.
Motivazione estratta
Since the 2011 change in Vaud law, private-law disputes between insurers and insured persons fall within the ordinary judge's competence under Art. 85 para. 1 LSA, with civil procedure applying. The claim concerned daily benefits under a supplementary insurance contract subject to the VVG, not compulsory health insurance under the KVG.
