Current information on colorectal cancer screening in Switzerland:

From July 1, 2025, the mandatory basic health insurance will cover the costs of colorectal cancer screening for people aged 50 to 74. Coverage includes a stool test (FIT) every two years or a colonoscopy every ten years. This adjustment aligns Switzerland with international recommendations and allows more people to be diagnosed and treated early.
