Health insurance in Turkey: what is it for and how to get it?

Medical insurance in Turkey is needed at a minimum because extreme recreation is practiced here: diving, surfing and similar entertainment, which sometimes leads to injury, and even if you are a very careful, prudent person, help may be needed at any time.

Is health insurance required in Turkey?

No, it is not mandatory for citizens of the Russian Federation to have health insurance, but you still need to have this document at your disposal, because it will not be easy to get medical care in Turkey without it, if you are not a citizen.
The insurance policy will clearly state the cases in which you can use the help of the insurance company: a translator, advisory assistance, finding the nearest clinic that matches your situation and other types of assistance at your service. Agree, it is troublesome to resolve these issues on your own if you refuse to purchase a policy.

How much does health insurance cost in Turkey and what expenses does it cover?

International requirements oblige insurance companies to formulate a policy so that it covers the following risks:

  1. Urgent outpatient treatment.
  2. Urgent treatment in a hospital if the patient's condition is assessed as life-threatening.
  3. Urgent dental services.
  4. Evacuation to the Russian Federation to provide assistance if the situation requires it.
  5. Repatriation. Will be executed in the event of the death of the policy owner. I don’t even want to think about it, but even these risks need to be covered.
  6. Delivery of the policy owner to the clinic.

The cost of insurance is influenced by the following factors:

  1. Age category of the tourist.
  2. Filling with risks. The more risks in the policy, the more options for help you will be offered in a critical situation, but the price tag also grows with each new position.
  3. Number of days in Turkey.

The cost of policies starts from 1000 rubles and increases in proportion to the volume and duration of the services offered.
