Following a significant premium reduction for 2020, Groupe Mutuel wants its policyholders to take advantage of increasingly stable health costs, as stated by the new CEO Thomas Boyer in an interview given to Le Matin Dimanche.

The second season of InnoPeaks, dedicated to developing start-ups in the fields of Healthtech and Insurtech, was launched at the beginning of October. The season will last until the end of January 2020 and a Demo Day will be held in March.

More flexibility and responsiveness for insured persons thanks to telemedicine and communication technologies: these are the advantages of CallDoc, Groupe Mutuel's new alternative insurance model.

Groupe Mutuel Foundation has rewarded the Ticino Cuore Foundation, the “Ligue valaisanne contre le cancer”, the Geneva-based association AVVEC and the company Dentsply Sirona for their outstanding commitment to prevention and health promotion by presenting them with prizes worth a total amount of CHF 45,000.

To meet customer expectations, Groupe Mutuel is launching a new alternative basic health insurance model. With PrimaPharma, customers will benefit from the expertise of Amavita, Sun Store or Coop Vitality pharmacies in order to receive prior advice in the event of a health problem and pharmacists will provide guidance to insured persons on the medical steps to be taken.

Following the appointment of Mr Thomas Boyer as CEO last May, Groupe Mutuel is further strengthening its organisation. As a result, Mr Pierre-Luc Marilley will become the new Director of the Customers & Markets’ Department and Member of the Executive Board. Mr Vincent Claivaz, who was temporarily in charge of the department, will therefore be able to concentrate solely on the management of the Corporate and Occupational Benefits’ Department.

Groupe Mutuel Prévoyance (GMP) and Mutuelle Valaisanne de Prévoyance (MVP) confirmed their merger yesterday evening. This merger gives a new dimension to Groupe Mutuel Prévoyance, which provides insurance for 2,700 companies and has more than CHF 2 billion in assets under management.

For the first time, the insurer based in Canton Valais has published the results of its new legal structure, Groupe Mutuel Holding SA. Although the figures cannot be compared with those for previous years, since it is the holding company's first financial year, the results are definitely in the black.

The first season of InnoPeaks, dedicated to developing start-ups in the areas of Healthtech, Insurtech and Fintech, ended successfully on Friday 15 March during a Demo Day. The event was the opportunity for 11 start-ups to present their work.
