Information about EWL insurance policy
By obtaining learner status, you will receive your salary (gross = net) without deductions for public health insurance contributions. Therefore, an insurance policy from EWL is mandatory for everyone who has learner status. Having this policy ensures access to medical services when needed.
EWL offers 2 insurance policy options. You will be able to choose one of them when filling out the application form:
Option 1 – 250 PLN
✅ The insurance covers medical treatment costs up to 30,000 EUR
✅ Up to 2 visits to a general practitioner (GP) and 1 visit to a specialist doctor during a one-year insurance period
✅ This insurance is suitable for applying for a residence permit (Karta pobytu)
Option 2 – 310 PLN
✅ The insurance covers medical treatment costs up to 10,000 EUR
✅ There is no limit on the number of visits to a general practitioner (GP) or specialist doctors. The costs are covered until the insurance limit (EUR 10,000) is reached during the one-year insurance period
❌ This insurance is not suitable for applying for a residence permit (Karta pobytu)
