What are my obligations?

  • We depend on your cooperation for quick and easy processing of any claims. For example, it might be necessary for you to release your treating physicians from their physician-patient privilege so that we can gather the necessary information. Moreover, you will need to provide proof for the start and end of your trip abroad by submitting suitable documents.

Where application and payment take place up to one month after the start of the journey, insurance cover begins on the date we receive the application and premium payment.
  • Insurance coverage expires automatically on the agreed date, at the latest at the end of your trip abroad. In case of an extended stay abroad for medical reasons, insurance coverage is extended until fitness to travel is restored.
