Frequently asked questions — general practitioner in Appenzell

General practitioner in Appenzell: how do I book an appointment?

Choose a postcode or turn on “Bookable online”: practitioners who offer booking on Synamed are shown first. For the others, show their number and call the practice.

How much does a consultation cost?

The price depends on the consultation. Medical services are billed under the TARDOC tariff and covered by basic health insurance (LAMal/KVG), minus your deductible and co-payment. Complementary medicine is usually covered by supplementary insurance.

My insurance requires me to see my family doctor first. What should I do?

With a family-doctor, HMO or telemedicine model, you must usually contact your family doctor, HMO centre or advice line before seeing a specialist. Check the terms of your policy before booking.

Is a video consultation covered?

As a rule, yes: a video consultation with a doctor is covered by basic insurance like a visit to the practice, with the same deductible and co-payment.
