Hospital in Basel, Bern or Aarau: what does basic insurance pay?

The Solothurn hospital list for acute somatic care also includes hospitals outside the canton, such as University Hospital Basel, the Inselspital (Bern University Hospital) and the Kantonsspital Aarau (the cantonal hospital). For inpatient treatment in a hospital on this list, the canton and the health insurer pay for the general ward at the applicable hospital tariff, minus the deductible, the co-payment and the contribution to hospital costs. If you choose a hospital that is not on the Solothurn list, the canton pays at most the reference tariff, and you may face extra costs; this does not apply to emergencies and to treatments that no listed hospital can provide. Ask your health insurer before a planned admission.
