In bankruptcy, Caisse-Maladie Klug ceases its activities at the end of 2025

In bankruptcy, the health insurer Klug based in Zug will stop his activity at the end of the year. To protect nearly 9,300 insured, the more than a century -old company was declared insolvent.

(Keystone-ATS) On August 6, the Federal Office for Public Health (FOSP) noted the insolvency of Klug and withdrew on December 31, 2025 the authorization to practice social insurance, said the authorities on Tuesday in a press release. Klug management had asked these two measures at the end of July.

According to the law, if a cash register becomes insolvent, an insolvency fund covers the costs of the services provided to protect people affiliated with social insurance. The OFSP ordered the immediate activation of this fund to avoid any default. He also examines whether bankruptcy has a criminal impact.

For next year, an offer will be submitted this fall to the Klug insured for a change from the insurer Helsana.
