 Are there any restrictions on cover?

  • Depending on the sums insured (see section “What is insured?”), you may have to contribute to the costs in some cases.

 Where am I covered?

  • The area of coverage depends on the chosen tariff (Europe to Europe, worldwide without USA and Canada or worldwide including USA and Canada).
  • If you travel to a country which belongs to a different area of coverage, worldwide cover will be provided up to six weeks.
  • If you interrupt your stay abroad in order to visit your home country, cover will also be provided for up to six weeks.

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.

 When and how do I pay?

  • The premium you will have to pay depends on the tariff you choose.
  • Depending on the payment method you choose, the premium will be debited from your account monthly or in a lump sum when due.

 When does the cover start and end?

  • Insurance cover is provided for the period indicated in the insurance certificate, at the earliest at the beginning of the stay abroad. Where application and payment take place prior to the start of the journey, insurance cover begins at the start of the stay abroad (when the insured person leaves his/her home country). Insurance cover begins at the earliest on the date we receive your 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.
  • No benefit will be available for insurance cases that occurred before the beginning of the insurance coverage.
  • The maximum duration of insurance is two years.

 How do I cancel the contract?

  • After expiry of the period applied for, insurance coverage will end automatically. Should you return early from your stay abroad, a phone call or an email is sufficient. We will then calculate your exact premium depending on the number of days you stayed abroad.
