Cantonal subsidy guide

Health insurance premium subsidy in Fribourg

In Fribourg, indicative entitlement depends on a determining-income limit linked to household composition and then on a progressive support rate.

The premium region also matters because Sarine and the other districts do not use the same premium references.

Key takeaways

Two premium regions

Sarine and the rest of the canton do not start from the same references.

Progressive support

The result is not simply yes or no: it scales according to the gap from the cantonal limit.

How Fribourg is approached

The indicative reading combines net income and a share of wealth, then compares the result with a limit that changes according to the household structure and dependants.

Once the relevant zone is identified, a progressive support rate is applied to the premium reference of the retained region.
