How will your invoices be refunded, direct billing or from hospitals?
After the admission of a patient, hospitals usually contact our claims department. Billing then takes place directly with the hospital.
In the USA and Canada, doctors and dentists can settle their bills directly with our partner Global Excel. For this purpose, you should contact Global Excel – if possible prior to falling ill. Doctors send their invoices to Global Excel who, in return, transfers the invoice amount directly to the doctor’s account.
Advantage of direct billing: if the treatment costs are within the sums insured under the policy, you don’t need to bother with the billing at all.

What is a return transport and when will you be entitled to one?
The return transport of the insured person is the medically reasonable and justifiable transport of the insured person to the place of residence in the home country or to the nearest suitable hospital to the place of residence if, due to illness or possible undersupply, treatment cannot or can only be carried out inadequately in the country of travel.
In the event of repatriation, the insured person is dependent on either medical supervision or a special medical facility, such as an extra seat in the aircraft or intensive care transport by ambulance flight.
Trained medical staff decides and plans the medically reasonable and justifiable return transport based on the respective needs of the patient.
If there is an emergency situation that may require a return transport, please contact the assistance.
