Social insurance is covered by AHV/SVA/IV (funded by salary deductions and cover congenital defects, invalidity, some rehabilitation therapies and other non profitable coverage) and of course healthcare is not fully privatized as you say: private insurances are private, offering highly regulated compulsory insurance and can offer less regulated additional insurance. Some hospitals/clinics/health and elderly centers (cantonal) are kept with public debt & public donations even if deficitary because private clinics would be unprofitable otherwise.

I don't know if you legitimately do not know that.

I did not talk about federal/cantonal to avoid writing a thesis in a comment. I never said it was centralized.
