Hi,
Swisscare is for 1 year. However, if you unfortunately must go to hospital and buy medicine, the insurance only pay back when the receipt is in English (and really slow). However, it is a good choice to apply for visa.

Hi,

Actually I just received my insurance reimbursement from Swisscare couple days ago though all my prescriptions and doctor's diagnosis are in Finnish. However, the process indeed is very slow.
