Hospitalisation without assumption of costs

If the treatment is financed without insurance, the following must be taken into account:

  • UKBB provides the parents of children hospitalised here with non-insured benefits in accordance with the Price list UKBB in the invoice.
  • An individually calculated deposit must be paid to the University Children's Hospital Basel before admission to hospital. Please bring the relevant confirmation with you when your child is admitted to hospital. In the case of emergency admissions, this will be obtained retrospectively.
