Tip 1: We know most of our clients are not interested in the "death and total irreversible loss of autonomy and income benefits insurances" which can be part of this insurance package, however the online application module will ask you if you want to issue those insurances . If you don’t want that you can just click the button ‘I am not interested’ on the right part of the page and you will apply for healthcare / dental (optional) only.
Tip 2: You can always calculate premiums in the module online (and you should as we cannot provide quotes on behalf of you), but if the online application module does not work to actually apply for the insurance you can also apply for an insurance using an applicationform and health questionnaire in pdf. You can fill out the forms online in your pdf program, so no need to print / scan. Fill out the forms completely and email them back to us (contact@johoinsurances.org) Important! Add a copy of your passport in the email!
Tip 3: If you are > 60 years of age the option 'extension of cover zone' does not work in the online application module.This is a 'bug' in the module. However if you want cover in a country (like your country of origin?) that is situated in a more expensive premium region (see here) the solution to have that country covered is to mention that country to be your 'country of stay' at the beginning of the online application.
