Anyone can suddenly fall ill at the weekend or during the night and need medical help. During these times, I don’t want to go straight to the emergency department at the hospital. With callmed 24, a doctor is there for me twenty-four hours a day and this gives me security.

What’s involved in a phone consultation?
Your callmed 24 contact person will carefully take note in writing of your complaints. Depending on the illness, you will be given tips on relieving symptoms, referred to a doctor immediately or sent directly to the emergency department. If all doctors are busy at the time, you can arrange for them to call you back. If further examinations are necessary, you’ll be referred directly to a specialist or to hospital.
How much does telemedical assistance cost?
Telemedical support is free for callmed 24 policyholders. The relevant cost contribution will only be due if the doctor refers you for further treatment.
Can the doctor also give me a prescription, referral or medical certificate by telephone?
Yes. Your doctor can issue prescriptions, referrals or medical certificates by email.
