If you have statutory health and long-term care insurance through the Künstlersozialkasse, you can change your health insurance fund under certain conditions.
Basic information
As a person who is subject to statutory health and long-term care insurance via the Künstlersozialkasse (KSK), you can choose your health insurance fund. You can choose from the following statutory health insurance funds:
- the local health insurance fund of your place of residence or work
- a substitute health insurance fund
- a company or guild health insurance fund, if the fund's statutes provide for this
- the German Pension Insurance Knappschaft-Bahn-See.
The benefits of statutory health and long-term care insurance are largely the same for all health insurance funds. However, there are differences
- in the amount of the supplementary contribution,
- the range of services and
- additional benefits and statutory benefits.
The health insurance companies will inform you about their benefits and services.
The long-term care insurance funds are affiliated to the health insurance funds. If you change your health insurance fund, you automatically change your long-term care insurance fund.
