Did you know? Facts about international health insurance

International health insurance: Why have it?

Are you working abroad for a few months, completing a semester abroad or planning a longer holiday? With international health insurance, you are covered for up to 364 days against treatment costs in the event of illness. It is particularly advisable to have travel health insurance outside the EU, as doctors and hospitals usually do not accept the Austrian e-card. As treatment costs abroad are often much higher than in Austria, you can quickly incur high costs, especially for inpatient stays. Save your travel funds and book our robust international health insurance from HanseMerkur.

What benefits are included?

Our international health insurance reimburses outpatient and inpatient medical costs for stays of up to one year. This also includes dental treatment, urgent operations and ambulance transport. If you have to return home early, we will refund the partial premium for the unused days. For even more comprehensive protection, we recommend our Premium plan with additionally insured events and higher reimbursement sums. Optionally, you can book travel liability, accident, assistance and luggage protection.

Our savings tip

Do you travel several times a year and not longer than 62 days? Then we recommend our annual international health insurance for worldwide travel destinations – it is often worth taking out for as few as 2 trips per year. If you would like to be even more comprehensively protected, we advise you to take out our annual travel protection including return travel insurance, delay protection and liability insurance.
