Santésuisse loses two communications professionals
Two communications professionals are leaving Santésuisse. Felix Schneuwly, the former media director and current delegate for public affairs, is leaving the health insurance umbrella organization. The current press officer, Françoise Tschanz, is also leaving with him.
The resignations are effective immediately. Both have decided to make a fresh start in their careers, Santésuisse wrote in a press release on Friday. The health insurance association cites the ongoing reorganization in the Policy and Communication department and the appointment of the new head of department, Urs Pfenninger, as the reason for this. He comes from the Federal Office of Public Health and will take up his post in November.
According to santésuisse director Stefan Kaufmann, Schneuwly and Tschanz resigned themselves.
