2.Advantages
- These insurance policies are easy to maintain after returning to your country of origin, especially in the Netherlands and Belgium, and other countries upon request. They do not exempt you from any local insurance requirements in the Netherlands and Belgium. The advantage of maintaining international coverage with Allianz:
1. No need for new medical acceptance if you plan to emigrate later.
2. Free choice of healthcare provider, including for planned care outside your country of residence. - The Regions of cover are extensive, making this insurance particularly suitable for people who travel frequently and live internationally, as they are unlikely to encounter geographical restrictions. Within the insured region, you are free to choose where you receive medical treatment and are not limited to healthcare providers in your country of residence.
- You may also plan and undergo treatment in another country within the selected coverage region. However, travel and accommodation expenses are at your own expense. An exception applies to the United States, where treatment must be obtained through a contracted healthcare provider.
- Individuals who hold the nationality of their country of residence (local nationals) can also be insured. This means it is possible to include a foreign partner under the same policy.
- You also benefit from the worldwide network of an experienced and well-established insurer.
Health Services Included:
- Telehealth Services: Access to medical consultations via phone or video.
- Expat Assistance Programme: Support services including counseling and legal advice.
- Mind Coaching App: Tools to support mental well-being.

- The policy is automatically renewed each year and can only be amended or cancelled on the renewal date.
- Maternity and childbirth benefits are included in the Core Plan and the Outpatient Plan. In addition to coverage for medical expenses, it is important to ensure that a newborn baby can be added to the policy with guaranteed acceptance. In this regard, Allianz does not offer the most favorable conditions. Please seek advice if you would like to learn more about health insurance options that provide comprehensive coverage for pregnancy and childbirth.

2. Applying with a moratorium (up to age 65)
You can also apply on a moratorium basis. In this case, you do not need to complete a medical questionnaire. However, existing or pre-existing medical conditions are initially excluded from cover. Complete the moratorium application form (pdf) and return it to us.

6.Services after enrollment
For certain types of treatment, you must obtain prior authorization from the insurer before receiving treatment. If you undergo treatment without obtaining the required approval in advance, Allianz reserves the right to refuse reimbursement or only reimburse part of the costs.
This requirement does not apply to emergency or urgent medical situations. However, in such cases, the insurer must be contacted as soon as reasonably possible. Further information about the Treatment Guarantee process can be found in the Benefit Guide.
Submitting Claims
- Claims can be submitted to Allianz through the MyHealth app or via the online member portal.
- Claims can also be submitted easily using the Claim Form.
- For most inpatient treatments, Allianz offers direct settlement arrangements with healthcare providers, meaning that the insurer pays the medical provider directly, reducing the need for the insured person to pay the costs upfront.
