Premium comparison is not enough
A switch from Sanitas should not start from one monthly amount. Basic insurance benefits are defined by law, but the premium depends on residence, premium region, deductible, insurance model, age and accident cover. PrimAI puts comparison back into that context: current policy, official premiums and the parameters that actually change the annual cost.
Optimize before leaving
Before leaving Sanitas, it is worth checking whether internal optimization is enough: another deductible, family doctor model, HMO, Telmed, accident cover or an address correction. This avoids preparing cancellation when a smaller change already solves the issue. PrimAI presents those options as separate tasks, not as pressure to switch.
The new insurer has to be ready
Switching also means choosing a new starting point with another insurer. The new option must match your residence, preferred model, deductible risk and timing. PrimAI helps keep that new situation visible before touching the Sanitas cancellation step, so you do not leave a known policy without an understandable alternative.

Cancellation comes after the decision
Sanitas cancellation comes only when the decision is clear. For basic insurance, the late-November deadline is often central; for supplementary insurance, different contract rules can apply. PrimAI separates comparison, optimization and cancellation so the document contains only the correct and necessary data. Sanitas supplementary cover can have its own rules, deadlines and conditions. PrimAI keeps it separate from basic insurance to avoid a document that is too broad.
