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.

If there is an emergency situation that may require a return transport, please contact the assistance.

Will the costs for medications be paid off?

Any medication needs to be medically necessary or prescribed by a doctor. You will receive your medication by taking the prescription to a pharmacy. The original prescription can then be submitted to us for a refund of the costs. The policy does not cover medication that can be bought at a pharmacy for free and without a doctor’s prescription. Please note that we can only process a prescription after we received the related (doctor’s) invoice along with the diagnosis. Did you receive my invoice? We need about 2 weeks to process your request. After the claims administration process has been completed you will either receive a reimbursement according to the tariff or a written notification.
