Key legal question
Whether the cantonal appellate court had jurisdiction over the first decision of 19 December 2011 concerning admission to practise at the expense of compulsory health insurance.
Extracted holding
No; the decision fell under Art. 55a LAMal and was appealable to the Federal Administrative Court, not to the cantonal court.
Extracted reasoning
The measure concerned only admission as a provider of services under compulsory health insurance, not the right to practise medicine generally. Federal law assigned judicial review to the Federal Administrative Court.
