Reach Germany's growing
expat healthcare market

Over 400,000 new expats arrive in Germany annually. KlarHealth gives you a direct channel to this underserved segment — with structured health data, digital onboarding, and verified patient profiles.

A large, underserved segment with strong insurance intent

Expats in Germany are typically employed, relatively healthy, and actively seeking insurance solutions — but poorly served by current offerings.

High intent, low friction

Expats actively search for PKV and supplemental insurance shortly after arrival. KlarHealth captures them at exactly this moment.

Structured health profiles

Patients upload and verify their medical history through KlarHealth. With consent, this data is available in a structured format to accelerate underwriting.

Engaged, retained customers

Patients who use KlarHealth actively manage their health. Insurance customers acquired through the platform show higher engagement and lower churn.

We keep PKV and GKV clearly separate — for good reason

The most common complaint from expats entering Germany is confusion between private (PKV) and statutory (GKV) insurance. KlarHealth is built to prevent this confusion — protecting both patients and insurers.

PKV

Private Krankenversicherung

Patients pay upfront at the point of care, then submit GOÄ/GOZ invoices to their insurer for reimbursement. KlarHealth provides a structured invoice management workflow — scanning, categorising, and preparing claims — so submissions are complete and timely.

  • GOÄ and GOZ invoice digitisation via AI
  • Claim preparation with provider details pre-filled
  • Reimbursement tracking and status notifications
  • Annual claim summaries for tax purposes
GKV

Gesetzliche Krankenversicherung

Most GKV patients rarely handle invoices directly. KlarHealth focuses on co-payment (Zuzahlung) tracking, IGeL self-pay services, and supplemental insurance (Zusatzversicherung) management — adding real value without creating false expectations.

  • Zuzahlung (co-payment) tracking and exemption monitoring
  • IGeL self-pay invoice management
  • Supplemental insurance (Zusatz) discovery and comparison
  • Statutory entitlements explained in plain language

How we work with insurance providers

01

Listed in the KlarHealth Insurance Finder

Your PKV and supplemental products are displayed to relevant patients at the point of maximum intent — when they're setting up their health records and asking about insurance. Expat-focused product descriptions, in English.

  • Product listing with clear expat-relevant features
  • Eligibility pre-filtering (employment status, arrival date, income)
  • Direct quote request flow
02

Verified, structured customer data at onboarding

With patient consent, KlarHealth provides structured health profile data at the point of application — pre-verifying medical history, current medications, and prior conditions. Faster underwriting, fewer back-and-forth questions.

  • Consent-gated health summary export
  • Structured ICD-10 coded condition history
  • Medication list and lab result summaries
03

Digital claims submission via KlarHealth

PKV patients prepare and submit claims directly through their KlarHealth portal. Invoices are AI-digitised, line items verified, and submissions formatted to your requirements — reducing incomplete claims and manual processing.

  • Pre-formatted claim packets per your spec
  • GOÄ/GOZ line-item extraction and validation
  • Submission tracking and status sync
04

Ongoing engagement — retention at scale

Customers who actively use their health portal stay engaged. KlarHealth provides ongoing health management tools that keep your customers active — annual summaries, preventive care reminders, and chronic condition tracking.

  • Annual health summary for policy review
  • Preventive care recommendations per policy coverage
  • Supplemental coverage gap identification
