Private Care — Health Insurance in Hungary
Updated: 2 days ago

Private Care is a comprehensive Generali health insurance policy that provides access to a network of private clinics across Hungary. The policy is suitable both for receiving high-quality medical care and for residence permit applications in Hungary.
With Private Care, you can access medical services at modern private clinics with a high standard of care and without long waiting times.
Who Is Private Care Suitable For?
The policy is available for adults and children aged 1 to 69.
For children, the Start and Plusz packages are available. A policy cannot be taken out for a child alone — the child must be insured together with at least one parent.
Insurance Packages
Depending on the level of coverage you need, you can choose from four packages:
Start — basic coverage. Plusz — a well-balanced option suitable for most needs. Komplex — extended coverage. Exkluzív — the highest level of coverage.
How to Use the Policy
If you need to see a doctor, simply call the Generali Medi24 24/7 hotline, available in Hungarian and English. Describe your symptoms, and the insurance company will find a suitable specialist and arrange an appointment at a private clinic.
You can also choose a doctor or clinic yourself, although arranging an appointment this way may take longer.
You do not need to pay for your appointment at the clinic — the insurance company settles the costs directly with the healthcare provider.
Please note: In case of an emergency, call 112 or 104, or go directly to an emergency department.
Waiting Period
A three-month waiting period applies from the start of the policy. During this period, the insurance covers only acute illnesses and accidents.
Acute conditions are those requiring medical attention within 48 hours, such as a high fever, severe headache, intense nausea, or other urgent symptoms.
Coverage Area
Private Care is valid only within Hungary and provides access to private clinics in Budapest and other cities across the country.
Cost and Duration
The cost is calculated individually and depends mainly on the insured person’s age, the selected package, and the number of family members included in the policy. Discounts are available for family policies.
The policy can be taken out for a period of one to three years.
Coverage begins on the first day of the month following the policy arrangement.
