Travel insurance

Comprehensive protection for trips abroad at particularly favorable conditions for SBK policyholders

Are you planning a trip abroad and wondering what health insurance coverage you need? In this case, it is important to know that health insurance benefits are legally limited in other European countries and do not offer worldwide coverage. We therefore recommend that you take out additional international health insurance before you travel.

Travel health insurance – your benefits

  • Exclusive 10% discount
  • Worldwide insurance coverage abroad with the comprehensive travel health insurance from ERGO Krankenversicherung AG.
  • Always valid for the first 10 weeks of every trip abroad.
  • 24-hour emergency number for optimal support in the event of a claim.
  • Quick, easy, and convenient online sign-up.
  • Particularly affordable family rate for all your family members who live in the same household (for children up to age 25) and want to be covered by travel health insurance.
  • No health check required.
  • Worldwide insurance coverage with ERGO's international travel insurance

    The benefits provided by statutory health insurance funds are limited in other European countries and do not offer worldwide coverage. This means that, depending on the country, we may not be able to reimburse you for the costs incurred, either in full or in part. For example, we are generally not permitted to cover the costs of repatriation.

    We therefore recommend that you take out additional insurance before you travel, for example with our partner ERGO Krankenversicherung AG. This will give you worldwide insurance coverage for trips abroad of up to 10 weeks. If you are abroad for longer than 10 weeks, we recommend a special international rate for longer insurance coverage. It is best to compare different providers, for example via comparison portals, before making a decision.

    Overview of services

  • 100% coverage of immediately necessary outpatient and inpatient medical treatment, including prescribed medication
  • Medical aids and appliances
  • Pain relief and conservative dental treatment, as well as repair of dentures
  • Coverage of medical treatment for pregnancy complications
  • Video consultation, e.g., with your doctor in Germany
  • Travel costs to the nearest medically appropriate doctor or hospital abroad
  • Medically reasonable and justifiable repatriation to Germany
  • Medically reasonable and justifiable repatriation within Germany (for distances of more than 50 km as the crow flies from your place of residence or a one-time overnight stay due to travel; not for journeys between your place of residence and place of work or for full-time field work)
  • Extended insurance coverage even beyond 10 weeks if you are unable to end your trip as planned for reasons beyond your control (e.g., travel restrictions due to infections). Coverage remains in effect until you are able to return to your place of residence.
