What should I do if I fall ill or need other treatment?
- In the event of illness or other need for treatment, the insured person can go to a suitable medical institution that is authorised to provide health services.
- Appointments with medical specialists can be made without a referral from a family doctor.
- A doctor’s referral is always required for tests, except in the case of prophylactic birthmark checks and if insurance cover for prophylactic tests has been chosen.
- The insured person pays for the services themselves (except in the case of an occupational health check) and sends the documents to the insurance company for indemnification as soon as possible, preferably not later than within 90 days.
- The insurance indemnity will be paid to the bank account of the insured person indicated by the insured person.
- PZU indemnifies the expenses to the maximum extent of the indemnity limit and the sum insured of the respective insurance cover and withholds the deductible if this is agreed in the contract. You will find information on effective insurance coverage and unused limits by logging in the PZU self-service.
- PZU may be contacted for a letter of guarantee if the insured person is unable to pay for the service themselves.
