Kernrechtsfrage
Whether Art. 104(2)(a) KVV, exempting persons living in a common household, violates equality before the law under Art. 8 BV.
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. The distinction is based on the factual existence of a common household and rests on a reasonable ground linked to the purpose of the hospital contribution.
Extrahierte Begründung
The ordinance remains within the statutory delegation in Art. 64(5) KVG. Persons living in a common household usually save less during hospitalization than persons living alone, so the exemption is rational and not arbitrary.
