Safely Insured On the Ski-Run

Online Insurer Covers Financial Risks Resulting from Skiing Accidents.

Nothing can stop them now. This is the season for enthusiastic skiers to wedel down the slopes again. And there is only one thing that could disturb the winter idyll - an accident. Every year, for more than 10,000 Germans the skiing holiday ends up in hospital. And in about 1,200 of these cases their injuries turn out to be so bad that they will suffer from permanent bodily damage or handicaps for the rest of their lives.

It is exactly this kind of accident that is not covered by a legally required accident insurance. Therefore, those who decide to buy a personal accident insurance make good provisions. The distribution channel internet that the online insurer Ineas has chosen provides some great advantages on www.ineas.de regarding a quick conclusion of an insurance contract. For when the skier has almost finished packing their suitcase, there is only little time left to take some quick steps in this respect.

First, the web visitor has the opportunity to gather some general and detailed information concerning personal accident insurance. Then the user themselves can calculate their premium according to their individual demand, e.g. if their insurance should or should not include sickness benefit. This individually calculated quote can be stored, for instance to compare it with quotes made by other insurers.

An additional hotline for immediate support leaves no question unanswered. If the skier decides in favour of Ineas, the client will not take long to conclude an insurance contract: The contract is concluded by filling in an online proposal form and send it via internet to Ineas. From that moment on, all insurance documents are stored in the client’s private online file. However, hard copies of these documents are additionally mailed home to the insured.

But there is a further advantage, especially for sportsmen spending their holidays abroad: In a claim case the insured can reach Ineas twenty-four hours a day on wap.ineas.com to claim their case via their WAP phone.

However, in spite of being insured in the safest way possible, the most reliable protection against accidents is careful skiing.
