Unique selling points

Reisiabi24 provides a 24/7 telephone assistance line for policyholders in difficulty abroad.

Medical assistance is mandatory and included in every policy, guaranteeing baseline emergency medical protection regardless of which optional modules are chosen.

The Reisiabi24 partner can arrange a guarantee letter directly to the foreign medical facility, so the insured does not necessarily need to pay upfront.

An optional terrorism and natural-disaster extension can be layered onto the core medical assistance cover.

COVID-19 medical treatment and trip-cancellation costs are covered for policies concluded from 07.02.2023.
