Goodbye student rate, hello cost shock?

You’re about to turn 30 or hit your 14th semester? Then listen up: Public health insurance is about to “level up” – but unfortunately, only in price. Instead of paying around €130, you’ll suddenly be charged about €260 per month – for exactly the same benefits.

Why? Because your low student rate is ending

The result: A letter lands in your mailbox, the deadline starts ticking – and many just start paying without questioning it.
Does it have to be that way? NO!

 
 
 
You're young, healthy – and still overpaying?

As a student, you're usually in great shape, rarely see a doctor, and hardly need any medication. So your health insurance should be cheap, right?

With us, you stay insured at a low student rate.

There are smarter ways. We’ll show you how to get fair coverage while saving a lot of money.

We handle the paperwork – you can focus on your studies.

100% digital consultation and processing of all documents

Online, you’ll find thousands of alternative private health insurance offers – with massive differences in price and benefits. Many private insurance deals look cheap at first glance, but you can’t really tell if you’re making a mistake and might end up paying double in the end.

FAQ

Is switching to private health insurance worth it for students?

Yes – if the conditions are right! After turning 30, contributions to public health insurance double. By switching to private health insurance, you can not only save a lot of money but also benefit from better coverage.

 
 
 

Yes! After turning 30, your eligibility for the student rate in public health insurance ends – you’ll then be voluntarily insured under the public system, and your contribution doubles to around €260 per month.
The good news: You now you can switch to private health insurance – allowing you to secure better benefits at a lower cost.

 
 
 

Thanks to our many years of experience as independent insurance brokers in the field of health insurance, we analyze and compare all relevant providers on the market for you – objectively, independently, and tailored to your needs.
Our goal: a customized health insurance plan that perfectly fits your personal situation.

 
 
 

Your advantage: We don’t charge you for the consultation, as we’re compensated through commissions by the respective insurance companies. Long-term support is, of course, included – with no additional costs for you.

 
 
 

No – only if you want to and meet the requirements!
You can stay privately insured if, for example, you become a civil servant, self-employed, or a high earner (with a gross monthly income over €6,150).

But be careful: As soon as you finish your studies and take on a job subject to social insurance contributions (with a gross monthly income under €6,150), you’ll be required to switch back to public health insurance.

 
 
 

No, you don’t have to! Your doctor will give you an invoice, which you can easily scan using your insurer’s digital app – the costs are then covered directly for you. So there’s no need to pay upfront or cover anything yourself.

And in case of a hospital stay? Your private health insurance also settles the bill directly with the hospital – quickly, easily, and without going through you.

 
 
 

You must be at least 30 years old – or turning 30 soon – and still enrolled as a student. A mini-job or working as a student trainee (Werkstudent) is not a problem, as long as you work no more than an average of 20 hours per week.

During semester breaks, you’re allowed to work more – the key point is: 👉 Your studies must remain your main focus.

 
 
 

Premiums in student rates offered by private health insurers have remained extremely stable for years. In some cases, they even decrease annually – depending on the provider and plan.

While public health insurance contributions tend to rise almost every year, the costs of private health insurance remain consistently stable. Over time, this can have a significantly positive impact on your wallet.

 
 
 

We handle all the paperwork – including deadlines, applications, and the complete submission of all documents. You can sit back and relax – we’ll take care of the rest.

 
 
 

With us, you always have a dedicated contact person you can reach directly at any time.
If you have questions – just get in touch! We’re here for you personally.

 
 
 

Yes! As soon as you finish your studies and take on a job subject to social insurance contributions, you must return to public health insurance – unless you are a civil servant, self-employed, or earn more than €6,150 gross per month (as of 2025, annual income threshold)

 
 
 

Yes! With your private health insurance, you’re also covered abroad for up to 12 months. Depending on the provider and tariff, different rules and agreements may apply – we’ll be happy to check the details for you individually.

 
 
 

Yes! If you meet certain conditions, you can remain privately insured after your studies. This is possible if you:

  • become a civil servant

  • work self-employed, or

  • are a high earner (with a gross monthly income over €6,150).
