[Statutory accident insurance--obligatory social accident insurance in Switzerland].

According to the new Accident Insurance Law, in Switzerland it is mandatory for all employees to be insured against accidents and occupational diseases. The legal bases, organization and implementation of this mandatory social accident insurance are described. Discussed in particular are the specific Swiss features, such as the inclusion of non-occupational accidents (leisure-time accidents), and special medical aspects in the assessment of incapacity, injury and occupational diseases.

[Expert assessment of accident sequelae in statutory and private accident insurance].

Public and private accident insurance companies have in common that the insurance risk is the damage to health caused by trauma. Otherwise, they are fundamentally different. Public accident insurance as part of social law has the function of providing compensation for damage. Functional impairment due to trauma is compensated abstractly according to the general labor market. Private accident insurance as part of civil law is an insurance of fixed sums anchored in the agreement. It is completely unrelated to the consequences of trauma-induced limitation of function.

[Medical statistics in compulsory accident insurance].

The medical statistics in the compulsory accident insurance are conceived as a secondary statistic. It includes both injuries and medical services. Since the Swiss National Accident Insurance Fund started in 1918, there were regular reports about medical statistics. The current statistics of the agency are organized as a sampling statistic. Only disability benefits are covered in toto. The statistical organization permits the identification of single cases in terms of specific characteristics and to analyze them further. The new accident insurance law makes accident insurance obligatory for all persons who are not self-employed. The regulation, included in this law, to record statistics uniformly will hopefully help toward the improvement of medical statistics within the compulsory accident insurance scheme.
