How many health insurers offer basic insurance in the canton of Glarus?

In 2026, 26 health insurers offer their models in the canton of Glarus. Basic insurance benefits are the same with all of them; only the premium, the model, the deductible and accident cover differ.

Why are the premiums not the same across the whole canton of Glarus?

The canton of Glarus has a single premium region: for the same offer, the premium is identical in every municipality. The amount varies by health insurer, model, deductible and accident cover, but not by municipality.

Why is the FOPH-approved premium higher than the price shown?

The large amount is the FOPH-approved premium — the same one as on priminfo.admin.ch, shown under each price — less the redistribution of the environmental levies (the CO₂ levy and the VOC incentive tax). In 2026 every insured person in Switzerland receives 61.80 CHF, which their insurer deducts from the premium invoices: 5.15 CHF a month, the same amount for everyone, whatever the insurer, the model or the deductible. The ranking is therefore unchanged. This amount is not necessarily your final invoice: your canton’s individual premium reduction or a discount for annual payment are added where they apply. For example, the approved premium of 411.50 CHF at Agrisano (AGRIsmart) gives 406.35 CHF after redistribution.

Until when can I change health insurer for 2026?

Your cancellation must reach your current insurer by 30 November 2025 at the latest; the change takes effect on 1 January 2026. The premiums on this page are those approved by the FOPH for 2026.
