What will happen, if a foreign tourist dies in Switzerland?

 

If someone close to you dies in Switzerland, then bureaucracy, lack of knowledge of the language and sluggishness of insurance companies can further complicate the situation.

Fall while walking in the mountains or sudden heart attack, and now a wonderful vacation in Switzerland will end tragically for a person. What will happen next? How to send the body of the deceased home? What formalities should be done?

 

Indian pensioner Suzanta Muhopaja could not even imagine, that while on vacation in Switzerland, his old life will end irrevocably. He booked a 12 day bus trip around Europe. The disaster occurred on the second day of stay in the alpine republic. Suddenly, his 64-year-old wife lost her balance and fell while walking near the town of Leysin (Leysin) in the French-speaking west of the country. Tour leader, Indian woman, had no idea, what should she do in such a situation.

 

"After that, how did it all happen, a travel company representative tried to call Bombay for further instructions. She had no local contacts, no clinic phone number ", - complains C. Mukhopadzha speaking to swissinfo.ch. Fortunately, a local Swiss couple were able to orient themselves and called an emergency medical service.

 

Through 15 minutes the doctors were already at the scene. “My wife suffered a massive myocardial infarction. And it was only then that I realized the seriousness of the situation. ", - says C. Muhopaja. An hour later, the woman was taken to the University Hospital in Lausanne. (Vaud University Hospital Center - CHUV), but it was too late, she passed away. "I have no doubt, that my wife received the best medical care possible. So the real tragedy began after her death.. Everything, what i faced, was a real horror ", - says the Indian pensioner.

Money and documents

 

Language was the first problem.. As it turned out, in the leading clinic in French-speaking Switzerland, almost no one spoke English. Fortunately, Indian Foreign Minister Sushma Swaray, active Twitter user, noticed a message from my friend, in which the situation was described, and applied for assistance to the Indian Embassy in Switzerland. Embassy staff were able to help overcome the language barrier, but the obstacles did not end there.

 

FROM. Muhopaja immediately reported the incident to the Indian insurance company, from whom the travel insurance was purchased. The insurance company sent him a form to fill out, demanding a death certificate and a detailed medical report, and without these papers, she refused to cover the costs incurred. What documents are required
