Can I take out a health insurance policy with and without coypayments?
A health insurance with copayment is a policy in which customers pay a fixed amount for their insurance, either monthly or yearly, as well as a variable amount, which depends on the times that they have used the policy during the month.
In addition, according to the conditions of the policy, customers will pay the money separately, each time they go to the doctor or the company will include the additional amount in the monthly bill.
If you do not visit the doctor regularly and choose an insurance policy with copayments, the final disbursement will be much lower than a policy without copayments. This makes it a good option for people who do not use their policy often.
At DKV, the copayment varies according to the insurance modality you choose. For example, in the DKV Integral medical directory insurance you can choose between the following:
With high copayment: Complete. For example, general medicine, paediatrics and nursing, EUR 12. If another specialist is required, EUR 20
With low copayment: Classic. For example, general medicine, paediatrics and nursing, EUR 1.95. If another specialist is required, EUR 2.95
Without copayment: Élite
The copayment modalities we offer allow you to adjust the price of your insurance even more to what you are prepared to pay and to how you believe you will use it, giving you the possibility of choosing between several options.
Waiting periods, what are they? Do medical tests have a waiting period?
A waiting period is the period of time set in the contract, from the date the policy enters into force, during which part of the cover included in the policy guarantees does not take effect. This period is calculated by months, counting from the effective date of the policy for each of the insured persons included in it.
Diagnostic means and tests do not have a waiting period, except for the biomechanical gait analysis. The supplementary cover exclusive to DKV Integral in its individual modality has a waiting period of 6 months.
In addition to this test, there are another four services with waiting periods, which are common to all products:
Surgery and hospitalisation, including surgical prostheses, for any reason and of any kind, will have a waiting period of six months, except in the cases of a life-threatening emergency or as a result of an accident.
Treatment for any kind of childbirth (except premature childbirth) or Caesarean operation will have a waiting period of eight months.
Transplants have a waiting period of twelve months.
Healthcare for HIV/AIDS has an exclusion period of twelve months (see definition of ‘exclusion period’ in section 2, Basic concepts. Definitions).
The rest of the provisions covered by the insurance have no waiting periods, so you can use them from day one. DKV also offers you other insurance policies with additional cover, which may have an additional waiting period.
