Key conditions
Assistance call deadline
Contact safeAway's 24/7 alarm centre (Falck Global Assistance) as soon as possible in the event of serious illness or injury, and always before any repatriation is arranged; safeAway's doctor must assess the need for, and means of, repatriation.
Unauthorized treatment
safeAway's doctor decides, after consultation with the treating physician abroad, whether and how a repatriation should take place; treatment or transport arranged without safeAway's involvement may not be reimbursed.
Purchase while abroad
The policy must be purchased before departure from Denmark and takes effect from the purchase date or a chosen future start date; it cannot be bought or activated once travel has already begun.
Chronic conditions
Customers with a chronic illness can order a paid medical pre-assessment (DKK 750) to clarify whether the condition will affect their coverage.
Pregnancy
Available sources do not specify a separate limitation or benefit amount for pregnancy; general illness coverage terms are assumed to apply, subject to the standard exclusion for conditions known before departure.
Pre-existing condition exclusions
As with chronic illnesses, a paid pre-assessment (DKK 750) can be requested before travel to determine whether a pre-existing condition is covered.
Coverage duration limit
The Annual Travel Insurance covers an unlimited number of trips per year, but each individual trip may last a maximum of 22 days; longer trips require a single-trip policy instead.
Direct payment
In serious medical emergencies, safeAway's 24/7 alarm centre (Falck Global Assistance) assesses and coordinates necessary treatment directly with hospitals abroad; for other claims (e.g. dental, physiotherapy) the customer typically pays first and submits a claim with original receipts for reimbursement.
Territorial scope
Coverage does not apply in areas where the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs advises against all travel
