Health insurance
Electronic health insurance registration
In Germany, all students are generally required by law to have health insurance (1).
Therefore, before enrolling (and, if applicable, re-registering) at a university, prospective students/students must request their health insurance company to notify the university at which they wish to enroll of their insured status (2). The insured status is transmitted electronically to the university by the health insurance company. Therefore, you will not receive a paper certificate.
If you request your health insurance company to send us the notification of your insured status, please mention the name of our university "Hochschule für Wirtschaft und Gesellschaft Ludwigshafen" and our sender number "H0000719."
