Insurance

To enroll in the International Class, you need to be insured: a health insurance and a third party liability insurance are obliged!

Health Insurance

All residents of the country, Belgian or otherwise, are required by law to be covered by a health insurance policy. It is  in the best interest of international students to have a health insurance! Without insurance coverage, the cost of medical care can quickly spiral out of control. For instance, a single night’s stay in the hospital can cost up to € 400 not including treatment or medicine. A standard health insurance policy will reimburse about 75% of the cost of a doctor’s visit, medicine and hospitalization.

Third-party Liability Insurance

Students enrolled in the International Class are obliged to have third-party insurance.Third party insurance is designed to cover you in the event that you are sued for damages by a third party, where they feel that they have suffered a loss as a result of your negligence or carelessness. This insurance policy covers any damages to third parties caused by the student while not on university college property. Your own personal injuries are not covered by this policy; only damage caused to third parties. The policy also covers the costs of legal assistance. In the event that you are successfully sued by a third party your insurance will cover the cost of damages awarded against you and any legal costs that you have incurred as a result of disputing  the claim. In case of insufficient cover a special insurance policy is available via Katholieke Hogeschool Kempen.

Job-Related Accident Insurance

This KHKempen insurance policy covers the entire university college community for study-related accidents and illness. Every accident covered by this policy, including accidents abroad, must be reported within 48 hours to the KHKempen Insurance Office. They will provide you with insurance claim forms and will take care of the claim’s settlement.
