Secure practising and opening permits<\/h2><\/header>[vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1759145774727{margin-bottom: 50px !important;}&#8221;]Start by checking regulatory prerequisites: Switzerland\u2019s system is strict to guarantee quality and patient safety.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Recognition of qualifications<\/strong>: have your diplomas validated by the Federal Office of Public Health (FOPH\/BAG\/UFSP). For foreign diplomas, equivalences or additional exams may be required.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Registration in MedReg<\/strong> (Medical Professions Register).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cantonal licence<\/strong>: each canton has its own rules for outpatient practice. Check local requirements (dossier, timelines, possible quotas, and language requirements in DE\/FR\/IT).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Mandatory insurance<\/strong>: at minimum professional liability (RC). Complement as needed (loss of income, legal protection).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Extracts &amp; attestations<\/strong>: criminal record, proof of experience, and proof of the canton\u2019s language proficiency where required.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<header class=\"kd-section-title col-lg-12 text-left  subtitle-below-title    vc_custom_1758641284238\" ><h2 class=\"separator_off\" >2.

A large city offers reach but often higher rents and more competition.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Accessibility<\/strong>: proximity to public transport, parking, step-free access. Ensure clear, visible signage.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Care ecosystem<\/strong>: nearby hospitals, medical centres, or other practices can ease collaboration and referrals.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Demographics &amp; competition<\/strong>: choose an area where your specialty meets real demand (families, ageing population, rural areas).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lease &amp; standards<\/strong>: review specific clauses (medical activity, hours, noise) and applicable standards (hygiene, radiation protection where relevant, medical waste storage).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<header class=\"kd-section-title col-lg-12 text-left  subtitle-below-title    vc_custom_1758641298953\" ><h2 class=\"separator_off\" >3.

A sole proprietorship is simpler to start; a S\u00e0rl\/GmbH or SA\/AG offers stronger protection for personal assets.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Contracts<\/strong>: lease, employment contracts, service providers (lab, cleaning, medical-waste disposal), and device maintenance.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Data protection (nFADP)<\/strong>: implement concrete measures:<\/li>\n<li>Secure medical software and <a href=\"https:\/\/info.onedoc.ch\/en\/blog\/all-specialties\/electronic-patient-record-epr-safe-data-protection\/\">electronic health record<\/a> (encryption, access control, audit logs).<\/li>\n<li>Internal procedures (confidentiality, role-based access).<\/li>\n<li>Compliant vendors and secure hosting for health data.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<header class=\"kd-section-title col-lg-12 text-left  subtitle-below-title    vc_custom_1758634543659\" ><h2 class=\"separator_off\" >4. Set up practice operations<\/h2><\/header>[vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1759145827473{margin-bottom: 50px !important;}&#8221;]Next, equip your practice and hire your team. Key considerations:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Medical equipment<\/strong>: invest according to your specialty (e.g., dermatology lasers, diagnostics, sterilisation). If purchase costs are high, consider leasing.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Practice management software<\/strong>: use modern tools for scheduling, medical billing, and records. OneDoc offers integrated platforms so patients can <a href=\"https:\/\/info.onedoc.ch\/fr\/hub\/prise-de-rdv-en-ligne\/\">book online<\/a> and access telemedicine, reducing your admin load.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Qualified staff<\/strong>: hire experienced medical assistants, nurses, and admin staff for reception, records, and daily operations.
