Why is EDUCARE24 considered better than the others and what is it?

EDUCARE24 is the flexible insurance cover for foreign language students, students, guest scientists and PhDs, interns and accompanying family members.

You can get information on this e.g. from the responsible embassy or consulate.

A good health insurance should offer you protection in case of illness and accident and cover medically reasonable return transport. Furthermore, the costs for individual treatments should not be limited and illnesses should not be generally excluded from the insurance cover.

• Does the insurance also cover sports accidents?
