Upon completion of the additional package „Duration of trip“ the insurance covers the first 84 days of each holiday and business trip. Insurance coverage begins when you leave your main residence, a second residence or your regular place of work and ends when you return to one of the named locations or when the insurance has expired beforehand. Travel between the aforementioned locations is not covered by the insurance. Field word activity is not considered a trip and is therefore not covered by the insurance. Field work is deemed to exist when the employee works primarily outside the company headquarters. This includes in particular the activity as sales staff, account manager, technical service personnel, construction worker, driver (of trucks, buses and passenger transport), which is done mainly outside the corporate seat (on site).
If you unexpectedly fall ill during an insured trip, we reimburse the costs of inpatient treatment until we can transport you back to Austria, even if the originally planned end of the trip has already passed.
The insurance period is one year. Unless notice of termination is given by one of the contracting partners not later than one month before the expiry of the insurance agreement, the agreement is renewed for a further year.
