F.A.Q.

You can benefit from our services in the same way as a Swiss. However, you will have to pay the consultation fees after the session. We will give you an invoice for your insurance.

As of July¹, 2022, psychotherapy by psychologists-psychotherapists can be reimbursed by basic health insurance (LAMal) on medical prescription, by a^primary care physician: internal medicine specialist, pediatrician, psychiatrist-psychotherapist, child psychiatrist-psychotherapist or psychosomatic medicine specialist.

In order to compile the medical file of each patient at the Les Toises, a certain amount of personal data is collected. In accordance with Chapter 2 of the Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP), updated on September¹, 2023, and applicable to the Centre des Toises, "personal data" encompasses all administrative information enabling a natural person to be identified (contact details, date of birth, etc.).

In addition, "health data" corresponds to information collected during an outpatient medical consultation. This includes your medical data (treatments, medical history, test results, etc.), psychological data (mental health) and physical data (height, weight, etc.). This data is classified as sensitive and is therefore subject to enhanced protection.

Our patients' personal data is kept in their medical files. All departments with specific, secure access to this data are bound by medical confidentiality. In compliance with the Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP), Les Toises guarantees the security, confidentiality and traceability of all data access, including any modification or new data entry.

The medical file contains all information relating to your treatment, including analyses, reports and correspondence. It is a file within the meaning of the Federal Act on Data Protection. According to the access rights stipulated by this law, you can request information about your data at any time, whether or not your file is archived. Your request must be made in writing and accompanied by a copy of your identity document. Upon receipt, Les Toises will send you a copy of the documents requested; as a general rule, information is provided within thirty (30) days.

Personal notes written by the doctor for mnemonic purposes, which are not used as part of the medical treatment, are not subject to the right of access. On the other hand, notes which contain information essential to treatment and which are consulted and used form part of the medical file and are subject to the right of access.
