For people aged 75 and over, as well as people aged 65 and over with certain risk factors (see Swiss vaccination schedule), we can bill the vaccine through the mandatory health insurance if you present a prescription for the vaccination. Alternatively, you can send the receipt to your health insurance company yourself. In both cases, the co-payment for the vaccination service is CHF 25. The costs for the vaccination service are covered by some supplementary insurance policies.
High-dose flu vaccination
STAY HEALTHY DURING THE FLU SEASON!
High-dose flu vaccination
STAY HEALTHY DURING THE FLU SEASON!
As people age, their immune systems weaken and often no longer respond strongly enough to the standard flu vaccine. For this reason, the Federal Office of Public Health recommends the high-dose flu vaccine for people aged 75 and older, as well as for people aged 65 and older with certain risk factors. This vaccine contains four times the amount of viral protein (antigens) compared to the standard flu vaccine. This makes it possible to provide optimal protection for yourself and others against the flu and its complications. The optimal time for vaccination is between mid-October and the start of the flu season. We vaccinate people aged 65 and over with the high-dose flu vaccine Efluelda. For younger people, the regular flu vaccine is recommended. It can be administered at the same time as the COVID-19 vaccine.
Cost high-dose flu vaccination: 73.80 CHF
Cost high-dose flu + COVID vaccination: 170.25 CHF
Duration: 15 minutes
- Appointment Cancellation Policy
Booked vaccination appointments are generally binding, and the agreed time slot is reserved for you. If you are unable to attend your appointment, please let us know at least 24 hours in advance so that we can rebook the slot. If you cancel your appointment at short notice, we reserve the right to charge a fee of CHF 50. If you fail to cancel your appointment, we will charge you for the cost of the vaccine, as it has been prepared specifically for you and must be disposed of if you do not attend. The latter also applies if you cancel your appointment more than 24 hours in advance, as we order the vaccine specifically for you and cannot reuse it.
