Recurrence when the employer changed

If an employee suffers a relapse, the insurance company that was already the primary insurer for the original case must cover the costs.

An accident must be created with the accident type “relapse NBU” or “relapse BU.” The original claim number, the third-party insurance number (see Recipient Swissdec) because the current employer either does not have a contract with the responsible insurance company or has a different contract number, the “without contract” feature must be set to “yes” in the insurance details.

This does not apply if the original case and the relapse are handled by SUVA.
