I am going to Germany for 4 weeks. I am going with my friends. I think travel insurance is essential in every part of the world. I am looking for some information about travel insurance policy of German government. I got some basic idea about German government insurance policy. Can anyone help me to take the right decision?

you haven't completed your profile and didn't mention in your question so we have no idea where in the world you are coming from so accurate answers are difficult to provide.
Are you an EU resident or EU citizen?

I checked with my healthcare insurance company, and I'm covered worldwide for accidents/healthcare.
My wife is retired and on Medicare with a Supplement policy. She too is covered worldwide for accidents/healthcare insurance.
We chose not to get travel insurance.
Many are concerned about transportation home if they need an air ambulance, etc. I'm fortunate to have a sister with a private plane capable of such trips.
