21.11.2019 - In 2018, one million people received inpatient care in a Swiss hospital or birthing centre. This represents 12% of the entire Swiss population and shows a slight decline in comparison with the previous year. As some patients were treated multiple times, the number of inpatient hospital stays was 1.47 million. Hospitals’ inpatient costs have stood still for the second year running. At 3%, the rise in costs for outpatient care was more moderate in 2018 than in recent years. These are some of the results from the Hospital Statistics from the Federal Statistical Office (FSO).
