Basic concepts

We resolve your most frequent queries about your health insurance

What is the difference between Personal Doctor and another health insurance policy?

With Personal Doctor, you choose your family doctor, who will be your trusted doctor and support and guide you at all times so that your relationship with medicine becomes more practical and efficient.

You will be offered the best medical specialists according to your needs and the best personalised prevention plans to improve your health.

You will have access to in-person consultations and tests, as well as via chat or video call 24/7. In addition, you won't have to worry about authorisations or appointments, as these procedures will be carried out by your health assistant.

What are Terms and Conditions?

It is a contract that includes the rights and obligations of DKV and the insured party or policyholder. It is also called “General Terms and Conditions” and “Special Terms and Conditions”.

Waiting Period

A waiting period is the period of time from the date the policy enters into force during which some cover does not take effect. You can consult the waiting period in your policy's general and particular conditions.

Previous conditions

The pre-existing condition is a health condition (e.g. pregnancy), alteration or organic disorder that existed before the time of the insurance was contracted, regardless of whether there is a medical diagnosis.

From when can I use my health insurance?

You can use your insurance and go to the doctor the day after you take out the policy, that is, from the first day it becomes effective. Except for some services that have a qualifying period, like surgery, hospitalisation, childbirth or transplants.

In which cases do I need authorisation from DKV to use the policy and how do I request it?

If you need an authorisation for a complex diagnostic test or treatment, your health assistant will request them for you. You can view the status of authorisations in your Personal Doctor app.
