When studying, teaching, or researching abroad, check with the relevant authorities about the host country's socio-health and political situation.
Also check:

• in the destination country (intra-EU or non-EU), the expected healthcare arrangements
• at the local health authority (ASL), the need for preventive healthcare.

The accident insurance policy provides a guarantee for the reimbursement of medical expenses arising exclusively from an accident, but it is not a health insurance policy because the guarantees relating to the reimbursement of medical expenses are intended to be provided only in relation to the occurrence of an accident that the insured party suffers during the performance of tasks, duties, activities and responsibilities, institutionally foreseen, permitted or delegated, even collateral ones, without exceptions or exclusions and in general everything that does not conflict with the provisions of their own legal system.
Therefore, where study, teaching, or research activities are carried out abroad, it is advised to evaluate the aspects relating to healthcare and the possible activation, on a personal basis and at their own expense, of a health insurance policy that meets their specific needs.

The insurance policy also includes coverage for injuries sustained while using the service vehicle for official purposes.
