Please contact your health insurance provider so they can send the required notification M10 to us electronically.

You will need to contact any public health insurance provider, and they will then notify us electronically of the existence of your private insurance coverage. Please quote the sender number of Mainz University of Applied Sciences for this purpose: H0001596.
Information specifically for citizens of EU countries
If you are from an EU country and have a European Health Insurance Card, you do not need to take out additional insurance in Germany. You just need to present your European Health Insurance Card to a German public health insurance provider of your choice, and they will issue a digital confirmation of your exemption from compulsory insurance.

If you have public health insurance in your home country, ask your insurance company for a form certifying your health insurance coverage abroad. The forms have different names depending on the country you are from, such as E-111, AT 11, ATN11 or BH6. You then need to present the form to a German public health insurance company of your choice, and they will issue a digital confirmation M10 of your exemption from compulsory insurance.Please quote the sender number of Mainz University of Applied Sciences for this purpose: H0001596.
If you change health insurance providers, we require electronic notification M11 of the change in health insurance provider from your new health insurance provider. Please contact your health insurance provider so they can send the required notification to us electronically. Please quote the sender number of Mainz University of Applied Sciences for this purpose: H0001596.
Students with private health insurance do not need to take any action.
