Published verdict

The law looks obsolete, unjustified, or duplicative.

Summary

This ordinance caps, by canton and medical specialty, how many physicians may be admitted to practise at the expense of mandatory health insurance. It lets cantons extend the cap to hospital outpatient doctors, suspend new admissions in specialties with higher physician density, grant exceptions for undersupply, apply criteria such as treatment access and workload, revoke unused admissions after six months, and impose detailed reporting duties. Its own text makes it temporary, with validity extended only until 30 June 2021.

Verdict reason
This is a classic market-entry restriction: it limits supply through quotas, discretionary cantonal approvals, and reporting bureaucracy. The ordinance itself is temporary and appears obsolete after 30 June 2021. Even on its own terms, it relies on administrative headcounts and density comparisons rather than competition or patient choice, creating rationing, protecting incumbents, and burdening entry.
