Question juridique clé
Whether the cantonal deadline and formal application form requirement for premium subsidies violated the Constitution.
Solution extraite
No. The cantonal rules were justified by legal certainty and equal treatment and fell within the canton’s broad procedural discretion.
Motifs extraits
Cantons have wide latitude under KVG to regulate subsidy eligibility and procedure; requiring a specific form and a 30-day deadline is not unconstitutional.
