insurance
CERN has its own health insurance scheme: CERN Health Insurance Scheme (CHIS). UNIQA is the Administrator of the scheme. If you are a CERN staff member, a fellow, a student or an apprentice, you will automatically be covered by the CERN scheme. The insurance also covers family members or partners and is valid world-wide, with some restrictions outside of Europe.
As a CERN associate, user or a beneficiary of the Pension Fund, you can choose CHIS/UNIQA as your health insurance. Costs can be found on the CERN Health Insurance site.
