I need medical treatment – what should I do?

As foreign guest you are covered by private international health insurance. Such health insurance covers only acute medical treatment of newly occurred illnesses. If it is not an emergency, please consider the following recommendations:

1. Please always consult your primary care physician (general practitioner) before seeing a specialist or going to hospital.
2. Please provide the physician with our Ärzte-Info-Ticket (medical info card) prior to the treatment.
3. Please inform your doctor that your health insurance only covers acute medical treatment.
