In
Switzerland, a natural medicine breakthrough has occurred – There, five holistic therapies – Homeopathy, Holistic medicine, Herbal medicine, Acupuncture and Traditional
Chinese medicine – are poised to attain the same health insurance status as
conventional medicine by May 2017. This means that people will be reimbursed
for such treatments, so long as they're administered by certified medical
doctors.
The
decision comes as the result of a six-year trial period that started in 2012 to
assess such for their suitability, efficacy and cost-effectiveness.
