Going abroad to work or study brings excitement and challenges in equal measure, as you adjust to a new language, a new culture and a new social security system. While this requires courage, energy and commitment on your part, it can be made so much easier by having a supportive, reliable partner in your new country. 

Siemens-Betriebskrankenkasse (SBK) is happy to help in all aspects relating to health - offering not only comprehensive health and social insurances, but also an overview of the German healthcare system in general.

Health insurance for expats in Germany from Siemens-Betriebkrankenkasse (SBK)

SBK offers expats in Germany a health insurance policy tailored to the needs of people living abroad. From English-speaking personal consultants to international health insurance cover, SBK is the perfect choice for foreigners living in Germany.

As well as providing high-quality health cover, SBK ensures that all your healthcare needs in Germany are made as simple as possible. 

German healthcare made personal

Every expat insured with SBK is given a dedicated personal consultant. In other words, individual healthcare advice and answers about your specific policy are only a phone call away. Alternatively, you are free to email your personal consultant directly or visit them at your nearest SBK office. 

Your personal online self-service branch, Meine SBK, allows you to manage your affairs from the comfort of home - with no need to worry about queues, paperwork or opening hours. Meine SBK is now also available as an app. 

Protection all around Europe

Enjoy automatic health insurance cover for travel throughout Europe with your SBK policy - so you can simply relax and focus on enjoying your trip. 

SBK’s travel service is also available 24/7 to answer any questions you might have before your trip, and to provide support and advice when you are abroad.

More reasons to smile

SBK’s expat insurance also includes a range of dental treatments at a dentist of your choice. And, with the SBK Bonus Scheme rewarding you for any steps you actively take towards a healthier life, you’re bound to have more to smile about!
