What is additional insurance?

It is possible to take extra coverage to cover costs outside of the base coverage, which often includes:

• Dental treatment for persons older than 18 years
• Therapies (physiotherapy, speech therapy, occupational therapy, etc.)
• Glasses and contact lenses
• Alternative medical care and medication
• Extra maternity care

The cover provided by these additional insurances can differ greatly between different companies and policies – and each policy can have differing levels of coverage available.It is therefore important to determine what coverage suits your situation best.

Although you are required by law to have a base insurance, additional insurances are entirely optional.
