Tip:
- Only terminate your current supplementary insurance after you have received confirmation of acceptance from your new health insurance company without provisos. Otherwise you are recommended only to terminate your basic insurance.
Health insurance companies can include a temporary or permanent proviso for supplementary insurance if they consider the applicant's state of health an unfavourable risk. This means that the policyholder will not receive compensation for any treatment related to the illness mentioned in the proviso.
- Answer the questions in the application form accurately and completely.
Health insurance companies have the right to include retrospective provisos if it comes to light that an applicant has provided untruthful or incomplete information when completing the application form.
