With Genki Traveler, you are free to choose any doctor, clinic, or hospital worldwide, whether public or private. However, certain outpatient treatments require prior approval from the insurer. Here's what you need to know:


βœ”οΈ Treatments Requiring Prior Approval:

  1. Elective Surgeries

    • Planned surgeries that are not urgent.

  2. High-Cost Outpatient Procedures

    • Treatments or procedures with estimated costs of €1,000 or more.

  3. Specialist Consultations

    • When the nature of the condition is new or complex, or when seeking a second opinion.

    • Also required if the cost of the treatment is high.

πŸ“ How to Request Prior Approval:

To get prior approval, email [email protected] with the following details:

  • Your policy number

  • A brief description of your medical condition

  • Details of the proposed treatment or procedure

  • Relevant medical documentation from your doctor or hospital

⚠️ Important Notes:

  • If prior approval is not obtained, only 50% of the covered costs may be reimbursed.

  • After receiving treatment, pay all expenses upfront and keep all invoices and medical reports, including:

    • Diagnosis

    • Treatment details

    • Dates

    • Costs


πŸ’³ Reimbursement Process:

  1. Go to the Member Center under "Compensation".

  2. Follow the instructions to submit your claim for reimbursement directly to your bank account.

  3. €50 deductible will be deducted from the total bill for the same treatment.
