Specialist treatments

The OOM Studying Abroad Insurance is a medical insurance for young people wanting to study, do an internship or work as an au pair abroad.

You will receive a reimbursement for specialist treatment if:

You will also receive reimbursement for additional medical expenses, such as X-rays, blood transfusion, outpatients' department, anaesthesia and radiation treatment.

With the OOM Studying Abroad Insurance you can opt for no excess or an excess of €150. If you incur costs which are covered by the insurance and you have opted for an excess of €150, you then pay for the first part of the costs yourself.

They examine you and have an MRI scan done of your abdomen. The costs of the specialist and scan are €475. If you have an excess of €150, you will receive a reimbursement of €325.
