Medical Helpline Worldwide GmbH

ASSISTANCE MEANS SUPPORT

An Assistance service provides help in emergencies. Immediately and directly.

Medical Helpline Worldwide GmbH has been providing comprehensive medical and organisational support services for over 20 years to private clients as well as business clients, governmental institutions and several associations. The special feature of our 24/7 emergency hotline is the possibility for travellers to speak directly to one of our specialists and emergency doctors at any time.

More than just help in the event of a claim

Prevention is more than just a word. Before you start an assignment abroad, we provide you and your employees with all necessary information and advice. To be fully prepared for medical risks at the destination you can ask us for a detailed risk assessment and emergency plan.

In medical trainings, which are adapted to your special requirements, we will prepare your employees for emergencies for example in areas far from civilisation.

Emergency hotline – your doctor is just one call away

Thanks to our 24/7 emergency hotline, your employees always have direct contact to one of our German-speaking and multilingual doctors without having to go through a call centre. Our doctors advise, mediate and accompany them throughout the entire medical process. Meanwhile, behind the scenes, our Assistance team in Bremen takes care of all organisational requirements so that your employees can concentrate fully and completely on their health.

Employee repatriation worldwide

Your employees can always count on us in an emergency, wherever they are in the world. Even in the most remote parts of the world, we organise transport to take them to receive necessary medical care.

Make risks calculable

Thanks to our insurance partners we can offer a travel health insurance plan, which will cover for the costs in a medical emergency. With the choice of the right insurance product, you and your employee don not need to worry in the event of a medical emergency and allows you to concentrate on what is really important – getting better.

Your strong partner for medical questions

Your specialist provider for the medical safety and health of your travelling employees.

The need for protection and support for your employees who travel abroad depend on the destination, their tasks and their personal circumstances. Medical Helpline Worldwide GmbH provides you with a range of services that are adapted to the individual needs of your company and your employees. With us as your partner you will meet your Duty of Care Obligations (in Alignment with ISO 31030) and will strengthen your business Continuity.
Preventative measures, such as advice while planning assignments abroad and training your employees, e.g. by way of special seminars for primary self-care, are just some of our services that allow employees to feel safe while preparing for a journey and reduce medical emergencies to a minimum.
Thanks to constant observation, collecting information and assessing current situations in the respective destination countries, we guarantee the protection and safety of your employees. Our doctors and our experienced Expert Assistance Team can be contacted by your employees at any time in the case of a medical emergency or even for just a simple medical question.

OUR AFFAIR OF THE HEART FOR CHRISTMAS TIME

In keeping with tradition, we at Medical Helpline would like to give something back this year for the trust that our customers have placed in us. We are convinced that the best way to do this is to support those who use their skills to help the weak.
As medical assistants, we are aware of the great relief that help and support can bring in emergency situations.
We have chosen three organizations whose impressive and important work we want to support this year.

This year, we are supporting the following organizations and associations and donating a total of €10,000 to them:

– Doctors without Borders e. V. (€ 6,000)
– CORRECTIV – Research for the society GmbH (€ 2,000)
– Wikimedia Deutschland e. V. (€ 2,000)

EXTREMELY FAMILY FRIENDLY

We were re-certified on 21.11.2023 at the senate reception and remain EXTREMELY FAMILY FRIENDLY! We were first awarded with this seal of quality in July 2021.

A family-friendly human resources policy is of great importance to us. It is therefore in our interests to create conditions by way of operational measures and actions so that MHW employees are able to balance their private and work lives better. We are proud to meet the conditions of the seal of quality and to operate a family-friendly human resources policy.
