Medical insurance for a trip to Russia

Free healthcare in Russia is available to foreigners only in emergencies — everything else is paid and expensive. A VHI policy covers outpatient care, hospitalization and emergency care for the whole stay. Programs for adults and children run 1, 3, 6 or 12 months — for work, study and long visits.

FAQ

Is medical insurance mandatory to enter Russia?

Not for tourism, but without it any doctor visit is paid. For a work patent a VHI policy is legally required.

What does the basic program include?

Emergency care, outpatient treatment for acute conditions and emergency hospitalization. The extended program adds routine appointments and a higher coverage limit.

How soon does the policy take effect?

From the start date chosen at issuance — you can pick your entry day. Issuance usually takes one working day after the request.
