by Dr Sabine Vuilleumier-Koch*

(23 January 2026) It is important to remain vigilant and closely monitor developments in the field of “health care”. This was the message conveyed by lawyer Andrea Staubli in an interview on Hoch2.tv.1 The reason for her clearly presented expert explanations and recommendations was the example of a radical change in the health law of the canton of St. Gallen in eastern Switzerland.
