Are you incapacitated for work? Want to go on holiday or move abroad? Notify your health insurance company's medical officer at least three weeks in advance.
Always inform your health insurance fund when you go on holiday. For some countries, you need explicit permission from the health insurance fund's medical officer. For other countries, it is sufficient to report your holiday three weeks before departure.
It is also important to indicate your holiday due to the planning of medical assessments. Is an assessment scheduled and have you notified us of your holiday in time? Then we may invite you for a assessment before you depart. That way, you won't miss an unexpected assessment and you can retain your benefit entitlement.
Notify or seek permission from the medical officer via My Helan. Be sure to do so three weeks before your departure.
You do not have to ask your employer for permission, but you must inform them. This only applies if you are medically permitted to leave the house. Obviously, if you are not allowed to leave the house on doctor's orders, you will not be permitted to go on holiday either.
Did you notify or get permission to go on holiday? Does your incapacity for work certificate run until after your holiday? If so, everything is in order and you can set off with peace of mind. Happy holidays!
Are you moving to live abroad? Notify your health insurance fund at least three weeks in advance. This can be done using the contact form.
The rules and procedures for getting incapacity-for-work benefits differ depending on which country you live in. We look at each situation individually, and will provide an answer to your specific question.
