Financial self-help support

There are basically two types of funding: On the one hand, there is flat-rate funding across all types of health insurance funds, which finances regular and self-help-related tasks. And on the other hand, individual health insurance project funding, which specifically supports projects if they are limited in time and content.

Further funding opportunities

Project funding

Individual health insurance project funding involves projects that are limited in terms of time and content. They are activities that go beyond regular tasks and the normal level of self-help work.
