Why take out long-term international health insurance for senior citizens?

When senior citizens spend a longer period abroad, whether for a long-term vacation, a longer stay with family or even permanent emigration, long-term international health insurance is essential. This insurance offers protection against the high costs that can arise in the event of illness or an accident abroad. As most international health insurance policies are only valid for a maximum of 60 days, you need long-term international health insurance for trips lasting longer.

Health problems can occur more frequently in old age, so it is particularly important that senior citizens are well covered - even if this means additional costs. International health insurance for senior citizens should be specially tailored to the needs and risks of this age group. For example, it covers the costs of visits to the doctor, hospital stays, medication and medically necessary return transportation to the home country.

NOTE: See your doctor before you travel and discuss the destination and type of trip - these should be tailored to your needs.

Why does it make sense to take out travel insurance for senior citizens through an insurance broker?

  • An insurance broker provides expertise and advice for the selection of appropriate travel insurance.
  • Support in the event of a claim, including assistance with claims settlement.
  • Works in the interest of the client, not the insurance company.
  • Customized solutions can be offered to cover specific travel needs.
  • Brokers work with a variety of insurance companies to provide a wide range of options, allowing them to recommend the best possible travel insurance.

Why travel health insurance makes sense:

Useful protection of the health insurance abroad

On the road in Asia with a scooter

Riding a scooter in Asia is very popular. However, it often comes with certain challenges. Opaque traffic rules, poor road conditions and the scooter has usually seen better days! These factors increase the risk of a road accident. The high temperatures also mean that you don't wear thick clothes. In the event of a fall, this can quickly lead to abrasions or worse. To avoid the dangers of infection, or to treat worse injuries, it is advisable to see a doctor. With international health insurance, you will not incur any unexpected costs, as medical outpatient treatment, including X-ray diagnosis, is included in the insurance benefits.

Dangers when hiking - Health insurance abroad

Hiking abroad

Hiking is one of the most popular travel activities. Be it an easy hike to a vantage point or a challenging tracking trail into nature or the mountains. What they all have in common is that they take you into unknown territory. No matter how well you inform yourself in advance, the paths are not always signposted as you know them in Germany (or in a language you can't read). The same applies to securing the paths, especially in remote areas, maintenance is often neglected. Due to the unfamiliar environment and the increased concentration required, the probability of an accident increases. If this undesirable case should occur, it can become quite problematic. There may be a doctor in the next village, but the necessary tools for treatment are in the hospital far away. Transport can be immensely costly, so it makes sense to take out an overseas health insurance policy that covers the cost of ambulance transport for in-patient treatment to the nearest suitable hospital and back to your accommodation.

Visiting the dentist abroad

Unexpected dental visit

A topic that is thought about far too rarely, but happens more often than one thinks. Tempting scents or recommended delicacies typical of a country make you try dishes that you sometimes didn't even know existed. So how do you know how to eat it or what you can eat from it? If you bite into something hard, a filling can come off. Some fruits are also so acidic that after eating them, the gums hurt. We all know how expensive dental visits can be. To avoid having to pay for them, play it safe and take out travel health insurance.
