Health Insurance and Personal Accidence Insurance
Detailed information on health insurance can be found on the Extranet in the tab
"Dean's Office -> Bulletin Board". There is a possibility of taking out a personal accident insurance. Relevant information is on the Extranet under the tab "Dean's Office -> Personal accident insurance".
If you are interested in health insurance provided through the University, please contact the Human Resources and Payroll Department, which works from Monday to Friday between 8:00 and 15:00, phone number: 71 356 16 29, e-mail: insurance@wsb.wroclaw.pl
Important information about insurance for foreign nationals!
Health insurance or a confirmation of the insurer's coverage of medical expenses is required not only during the entry and application for a temporary and permit residece card, but also during the whole stay of the foreigner in Poland.
If you do not have the citizenship of a Member State of the EU/EFTA countries, nor the right to legally reside on the territory of an EU/EFTA country other than the Republic of Poland, nor are you subject to compulsory health insurance on the territory of the Republic of Poland or in another EU/EFTA country (e.g. compulsory insurance for an employed person, the right to report as a family member of the insured person, etc.), then you voluntarily insure yourself, e.g. in the National Health Fund (NFZ), before that, you should order a certificate of student status from the Dean's Office.
Where to take out insurance: DOW NFZ Insurance Service Centre in Wrocław, ul. Dawida 2, room 121, phone: 71 7979 133 and 71 7979 131, www.nfz.gov.pl/dla-pacjenta/zalatw-sprawe-krok-po-kroku/jak-ubezpieczyc…
Remember! If you are not insured, your temporary or permit residence card may be withdrawn, which means that you have to leave the country. Failure to leave Poland despite the withdrawal of the temporary or permit residence card, results in the foreigner's obligation to return, combined with a ban on re-entry for at least 6 months.
When taking out insurance with other insurance institutions, one should pay attention whether the insurance conditions also cover hospitalization. With such insurance, you should also remember that it is you, as a student, who must cover the costs of treatment, and then the insurer will reimburse you for the expenses incurred, as opposed to an agreement directly with the NFZ, where the form of settlement is non-cash.
