Do I need to cancel my old health insurance before applying?

No, that’s not necessary. We’ll take care of the cancellation for you. You can simply fill out the application — no further action needed. That way, you’ll soon start enjoying all the benefits of being with BIG!

What are the cancellation deadlines?

Whether it’s a regular or special cancellation, the notice period is always two months to the end of the month. After switching health insurance providers, you are generally bound to your new provider for 12 months. However, if you change employers, you can switch to a different health insurance provider immediately.

Can I switch health insurance providers while undergoing treatment?

Yes. You can switch health insurance providers even if you’re currently receiving treatment. No need to worry — your treatment will continue with us just as usual.

When does a special right of cancellation apply?

You have a special right of cancellation — and can switch health insurance providers more quickly — whenever your current provider increases their additional contribution (Zusatzbeitrag).
