Saving tips
Basic insurance
Save with alternative insurance models (AIMs)
Everyone’s needs are different. That’s why there are several options to choose from when taking out basic insurance. In addition to the standard stat-
utory option, you can also choose alternative insurance models (AIMs). The medical benefits you get from them are the same everywhere. With an AIM,
you save on premiums, and the efficient and competent way you’re dealt with by a central contact person means you also avoid multiple examinations.
We reward you for this with a premium discount.
