You may some questions on whether private health coverage is the best option for you and your family. To help you make the right choice, we have put together comprehensive guides for you.

Ready to sign up? Follow the steps below to get covered:


Step 1: Get your family quote

Our family calculator allows you to get a quote for you and your family.

Simply scroll down until you see the following:

  • Add your own details

  • Then click on + Spouse and + Child to add your dependents to the quote

  • Scroll down to compare costs and coverage details

You don’t need to all choose the same plan. Each family member can select the coverage that suits them best.

Step 2: Apply for yourself

Submit an application for the main policyholder first.

This is the person in your family who earns above the income threshold for private coverage.

  • When asked if you want to cover your family members, select “Not right now”

  • You'll apply for your loved ones in the next step


Step 3: Apply for your dependents

Complete the dependent application form after your own application has been submitted.

A separate form must be completed for each dependent you wish to cover.

Within 2 business days, you’ll get an email to confirm their applications with your signature.


What happens next?

  • If we require more information to process your applications, we’ll reach out automatically

  • Once your coverage is confirmed, all policy documents will be uploaded to your Feather account

  • Employed with a German company? They are required to contribute up to 50% of the premiums for you and your dependents
