What does a day of sickness absence really cost?
Dr. med. Mathias Siegfried MBA, Mitgründer
Direct wage costs, lost output, overtime, team morale: a single day of absence quickly adds up to between CHF 600 and CHF 1,000.
Up to 40% fewer days of absence.

Vision
Our vision
We are convinced that employee health is no side issue. It is the foundation of business success.
That is why we make sure no one gets lost in the system.
We create clarity while others are still hesitating.
We act early to set the right course, and we accompany people back into everyday working life – medically well-founded, empathetic and solution-oriented.
With digital tools, medical independence and genuine dialogue between insurers, companies and employees, we pave the way back to a stable working life.
Because health is not just a condition, it is the prerequisite for self-determination, participation and economic strength.
Our four pillars
Four pillars for medicine at the workplace
We combine medical expertise with digital precision – as physician-led absence management that takes on the role often described elsewhere as an occupational physician or company doctor – creating solutions that work equally well for companies, insurers, law firms and employees.
Why AcciMed
Clear in our stance. Clear in our delivery
What we do
We assess work capacity independently, issue medical work capacity certificates and support return-to-work processes in a structured, solution-oriented manner. We create smart interfaces between employers, insurers and medical professionals, helping to shorten absences, reduce costs and guide employees back into everyday working life.
How?
We combine digital telemedicine with conventional medicine and place work capacity at the centre. We think across disciplines, act quickly and actively involve everyone concerned: insurers, employers, employees and physicians. Our digital tools enable structured communication and clear decisions: data-based, traceable and human.
Why?
We believe that absences due to illness and accident can be managed more efficiently, more humanely and with a stronger focus on solutions – to the benefit of insurers, companies and employees. That is why we are driving a new kind of collaboration: digital, medically well-founded and focused on shared solutions rather than individual interests.

The employer receives only the information relevant for planning. Diagnoses and medical details remain protected by medical confidentiality.
