Care Management – personal support in the event of illness or accident
SWICA Care Managers will assist their clients in cases of illness and following accidents. Throughout Switzerland more than 85 Care Managers are at your disposal with their support and advice.
SWICA makes sure its insured members receive the best treatment and support when they fall sick or suffer an accident – from the first doctor’s consultation to the conclusion of therapy and their reintegration into day-to-day life. SWICA Care Management takes on all the coordination between patient, doctors, employer and other departments involved.
The Care Managers from SWICA are experienced specialists with excellent social, communication and management skills. Unlike other health insurance funds, SWICA has "care managers" instead of "case managers" because we focus on providing optimum care and support for the person concerned rather than on managing cases.
