Once the insurance has been arranged, we send the policy to the address you specify via a delivery service convenient for you. You need to return the original of the copy you have signed for the insurance company to our office.

Why MEDICO – 21?
The insurance company MEDICO – 21 guarantees quality service to its clients while offering practically the lowest health insurance prices for foreigners in Bulgaria. It also makes it possible to be treated at any medical institution in the country and to access any medical services with subsequent compensation for insured events.
Insurance for pensioners over 75 always comes at inflated rates and sometimes reaches sky-high prices that pensioners are most often unable to pay. The insurance company Medico-21 has taken care of this, keeping prices for insuring pensioners as low and affordable as possible.
How are funds refunded when you have health insurance?
The insurance company Medico 21 AD makes prompt payments for insured events by reimbursing the costs incurred for diagnostics, treatment and medication. To do this, you must notify the company's call centre on the day you seek medical assistance.
Calls are accepted in any language, and the call centre also has Russian-speaking staff. You then need to obtain an epicrisis or hospital discharge note from the doctor, along with invoices for all payments made, and submit them together with a copy of the insurance policy, your passport and your bank account details to the insurance company in person or through your broker.
