In addition to the maternity coverage provided by your private health insurance with Feather, you are entitled to additional financial assistance! If you work for a German company, your coverage automatically entitles you to benefits through the Bundesamt für Soziale Sicherung (BAS). This maternity benefit is a one-time payment capped at €210.

Moreover, regardless of your employment status—whether you're an employee, a freelancer, or self-employed—having the sick pay component can typically enhance your support during maternity leave.
