This investigation exposes the practices of health insurance brokers. For months, we documented the abuses of Hestia Conseils, a major intermediary for Groupe Mutuel, before turning our attention to Neosana, the insurer's Zurich-based subsidiary. In response to our findings, FINMA launched an audit. This work reveals the ineffectiveness of the regulations, the consequences of which are borne by policyholders.
