Welcome Dear afflicted and compulsively-insured fellow sufferers and comrades-in-arms. It’s high time to get going!

Werner Bachmann. Although our health system is no doubt excellent, it remains at least 3 to 6 times too expensive!
PS: many people believe that US healthcare is even more expensive – they are wrong! Today, in 2022, health insurance premiums with a CHF 300 deductible – in Zurich – stand (according to the Federal premium calculators) between CHF 416.90 and 615.20. By 2023, these should increase by a further 10%. Moreover, there is the fact that the industry plans to replace the previous doctor’s tariff, known as „Tarmed”, with the new „Tardoc“ tariff, which will push premiums through the roof. Because the Swiss Federal Council also expects further additional costs from this tariff, it has rejected it for the time being. Needless to say, the industry threw a fit.

Medical services: hourly fees of well over CHF 1,000 for routine services are already the norm in many places, and are now even protected by the courts! Laboratory costs are three times cheaper in Germany. What madness! Result: crooks cheer and we, insurance premium payers, moan and groan! This is the sad reality of everyday life. But who cares? All patients are insured, and insurance companies pay willingly.

STOP! CHF 200 per doctor per hour is more than enough! After all, most service providers are satisfied with CHF 100 to 140 per hour. Even „Protection and Rescue“ services are satisfied with a CHF 120 hourly fee. Simply compare your latest medical bills with the treatment time in the consultation room and be amazed. Responsible: you should be thoroughly ashamed of your outlandish calculations – all of you without exception! And you are entirely to blame: long live the proverb „The jug goes to the well until it breaks“ – namely right now.
Now, together with our newly founded, I demand two things with our popular initiative:

1. The abolition of our corrupt health insurance companies

2. the re-establishment of the much cheaper federal
….unit health insurance fund, i.e., „EKK“

3. The abovementioned crooks and scams cannot happen thereafter. The recipe for success:

4. Abolishing?! Mega savings potential!= these are simple words with tremendous impact!

5. Largest savings potential through extensive automation

6. Unsurprisingly, 3-6 times cheaper patient bills allow for 3-6 times cheaper health insurance premiums. In the future, instead of the current CHF 450 and more, we shall only pay – albeit getting much better services in return – for what is legally guaranteed:

150 francs per month

Now you will find out about mine

particularly crass and mean experience,

which for me was „the hour of birth“ of both initiatives! Scene of the crime: Triemli City Hospital in Zurich:

First of all: we have always been very satisfied with the services provided by the medical staff at the Triemli City Hospital. Thank you for that! The only things that really make us angry are the hospital administrations, which Wucherpteise charge us for the good work of their staff.  The eye clinic of the Triemli Hospital Zurich charged me for a very simple, barely 25-minute 0-8-15 final examination, the exorbitant amount of CHF 532.45. I only became aware of this because my ASSURA health insurance asked me to pay my contractual 10% deductible of CHF 53.25. Triemli Hospital, however, failed to send me the legally required duplicate invoice. The current Tarmed tariff yields a final price of CHF 81.45. I vigorously, and on pain of legal pursuit for usury and fraud, demanded a correct invoice of CHF 81.45. Lo and behold: After a tough struggle with the Chief Physician, Lawyer and Hospital Management, Triemli Hospital recognised its fraud and reduced its bill, which was 6.6 times too expensive, from

CHF 532.45 to CHF 81.45.

Who would have thought it possible? And the last straw, and a particularly criminal trick at that: Triemli even sought to punish me with a CHF 100,000 penalty if I shared the granted discount with anyone.

Breathe in deeeeply! This speaks volumes! These people have lost their bearings completely!

Unbelievable? No, unfortunately that is the bitter truth. Find here every original documents belonging to this incident. In addition, you can see my criminal complaint and – after an 8-month waiting period – its rejection. Now another – even harder and bitter – pill to swallow:

The pitiful and criminal failing of the Supreme Social Insurance Court of the Canton of Zurich.

The most sacred premise in our Federal Health Insurance Act (Kranken-Versicherungs-Gesetz KVG) is mentioned a few times. In Art. 25a, Ziffer 4, this obliges the medical industry, in our benefit as insurance premium payers, to

…. always work efficiently and cheaply …..

The situation unfolded as follows: as you saw above, Triemli Hospital reduced its exorbitant bill from CHF 542 to CHF 82. Expressed otherwise, the bill was CHF 460 too high. Pursuant to Article 59 paragraph 1b KVG, Triemli Hospital must repay the unjustly drawn difference and ASSURA health insurance, as soon as it learns of the usury, must actively demand the same amount from Triemli Hospital. It’s a simple and straightforward process that anyone would understand, don’t you think?

Well, not ASSURA health insurance. So, I brought my case before the Social Security Court, to see this legal obligation fulfilled. As expected, ASSURA put up a ferocious and all-out fight shrouded in legalese. Unfortunately, as with all my other previous fights, I did not have a winning hand.

The appropriate short answer was: „No, no, Mr. Bachmann, in this case it was a matter of establishing that a (converted) hourly fee of CHF 1,278 is correct, even under KVG „efficient and cheap“ premise.“ And here‘s my retort: they’re just criminal dimwits!

The crooks‘ windfall: now it is even court-ordered that bills can be much too high with impunity!
My view on the whole affair: now I have written confirmation of my suspicion, that is, that the Zurich Social Insurance Court, in which I placed high hopes to no avail, is also corrupt! Indisputable evidence lies in plain sight.

If we remain complacent, we will keep on pouring cash into the gaping and insatiable maw of our corrupt healthcare system… for many years to come. No matter what we do – we are powerless – and nothing can change that! This initiative is an absolute must!

My last criminal complaint for now will tell us whether the old adage „little thieves are hanged, but great ones escape“ still holds.

3.6.22 The incredible answer from the judiciary is here!

The information published below in the SRF teletext prompted me to file a criminal complaint for
commercial fraud – also as an aggrieved insurance premium payer. This is possible in the case of official offences. I did not receive

SRF 1 teletext announcement in English

an acknowledgement of receipt nor heard anything that I felt was the first defensive reaction. After 11 months elapsed, I demanded access to the file. The answer of the prosecutor’s office „for special investigations???“: rejected. I don’t want to argue anymore – unless the hospital director Zünd gets away with it unscathed.

We are approaching the end of my call

Of course, I also tried to involve the media in my demand. So far without success. The way I see it, they (whether commercial or political stakeholders) don’t want to deal with this „red-hot potato.“ Nobody dares and everyone believes this to be a pointless fight – we are already too complacent and stuck in our ways. Just picture this: a couple saves CHF 600 francs a month to treat themselves to something special. No: all that is needed now – but absolutely necessary – is the decisive little push to set off the landslide. As soon as temperatures (it is now April 2022) allow it, I will make my (and our) concern abundantly known with my „advertising vehicle“ in places with high commuter traffic.

Every beginning is difficult – especially as an individual and pensioner of modest means. That is why I ask you to send me a small donation. Thank you very much!

There would be much more to tell. I apologise for the fact that my experiences do not relate to the whole of Switzerland. Because I live in Zurich, of course I don’t go to Bern or anywhere else with my illnesses. So, for the time being, everything remains a bit „Zurich-heavy.“
I would also ask you to „grade“ my efforts. I’m hoping for many suggestions and testimonials. Yes, we can only win. Please help! Thank you very much!

We from the club
„Albisrieder-Komitee“
fight for honest prices
and are now also launching the initiative for the
„United Health Insurance Fund“
for monthly only 150 francs
—————
plus for cheaper prices the initiative
„Stop Switzerland surcharge“
We only pay an average European price for all branded items
—————
And for lower state taxes
– depending on the course – also the initiative
„Stop Hospital Funding“
The canton of Zurich alone pays for it –
with 1.54 billion – 20%
his total tax income
of 7-billion francs.
Incredible how we premium and taxpayers
constantly damaged and deceived by usury and fraud.
