Health Insurance

There is no insurance cover included in an ERASMUS scholarship. You should therefore ensure that you have adequate insurance cover for the duration of your period of study abroad.

 

National Health Insurance
If you are covered by a national health insurance policy, you can use the E128 form or the European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) to access healthcare abroad, in accordance with the Social Security Laws in the relevant country. Before your departure, ask your insurance provider if this agreement applies to your host country and apply for the necessary insurance card or form. The German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) emphasises that, since its introduction, the European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) often only provides medical cover in case of illness or an accident where emergency medical care is needed. The DAAD therefore recommends that additional (private) travel health insurance is taken out.

Private Health Insurance
Private health insurance companies are generally not involved in the European insurance agreement. Please speak to your insurance company in good time to find out about insurance cover abroad.

Student Health Insurance
Partner universities (e.g. in the UK) offer student health insurance on enrolment, which you can take out in addition to your own health insurance policy. It is also possible to make use of the DAAD group insurance scheme, which provides combined health, personal accident, and private liability cover.

Additional Travel Health Insurance
It is recommended that you take out additional private travel health insurance which includes repatriation.

 

 

Weitere Versicherungen

ERASMUS-Studierende sind bei ihrem Auslandsstudium gesetzlich gegen Arbeitsunfälle und Berufskrankheiten versichert. Die gesetzliche Unfallversicherung erstreckt sich allerdings nur auf solche Tätigkeiten, die mit dem Hochschulbesuch in einem inneren ursächlichen Zusammenhang stehen, d.h. der Aufenthalt an der Gasthochschule zum Zwecke des Studiums und die damit verbundenen Wege. Tätigkeiten des eigenwirtschaftlichen, privaten Bereichs, z.B. das Besorgen von Büchern oder Nahrungsmitteln in einem Ladengeschäft sind nicht unfallversichert. Bitte prüfen Sie, ob Ihre Haftpflichtversicherung auch für die Zeit des Auslandsstudienaufenthaltes gilt.
