Statutory health insurance - Statutory health insurance for employees (DAK-Gesundheit)

Gesetzliche Krankenversicherung

Description



Insurable persons

You can insure yourself if you are employed in Germany and are subject to social security contributions. As an employee, you usually have to take out insurance from a public health health insurance carrier. Only when you exceed a certain income threshold do you have the choice between private and statutory health insurance (69300 euro gross per year).

Under certain conditions, you can also insure your family free of charge through the family insurance plan. With us you can apply for membership to the statutory health insurance provider, DAK-Gesundheit, quickly and easily online.

Scope of insurance coverage

The public health insurance is valid in Germany. In EU and EWR countries costs are paid via the European Health Card.
TIP: For stays of up to eight weeks in all other countries, we recommend our Care Holiday international health insurance plan starting at 10.90 EUR per year.

You become a member of DAK-Gesundheit, one of the largest health insurance providers in Germany.

Contribution

In Germany the contribution for your statutory health insurance coverage is automatically deducted from your gross salary. At DAK-Gesundheit this is 16.3%, and half is paid by you and half by your employer.

In addition, there is the public long-term care insurance with a contribution of 3.40% if you have a child and 4.00% if you do not have children. This is paid in half by the employer as well.

If you are the main wage earner and you meet the pre-conditions, you can also insure your family free of charge via the family insurance plan.
