How have the psychology sessions been set?

Insurance companies generally set a maximum limit of sessions per insured person per year. At DKV, we have one of the widest contracting age limits on the market.

Our comprehensive medical assistance insurance and our modular insurance with module B (specialists and diagnostic means) cover psychotherapy sessions on an individual basis as outpatient treatment with the prior prescription from a psychiatrist or paediatrician of the corresponding DKV Network of Healthcare Services, according to the modality contracted, given by an associated psychologist and with the authorisation of DKV Seguros. 

In mixed reimbursement insurance policies, you can access the medical directory and visit any specialist by obtaining the corresponding authorisation. Then, you can submit the invoice to the company to receive a reimbursement of expenses within the limits established in your policy.

Insured persons can access this service up to a maximum limit of 20 sessions per insured person and calendar year, except for eating disorders (anorexia and bulimia), school bullying and gender and/or family-based violence, cyberbullying and work-related stress, whose annual limit is 40 sessions. 

In mixed reimbursement insurance policies, sessions carried out through the medical directory or with a freely chosen specialist shall be considered together.

This cover is included for the following pathologies susceptible to psychological intervention:

• Psychiatric illnesses: depression, schizophrenia and psychotic disorders. 

• Behavioural disorders: neurosis, anxiety, personality and obsessive compulsions. 

• Eating disorders: anorexia and bulimia. 

• In situations of school bullying, cyber bulling and gender or family-based violence. 

• Sleep disorders: enuresis, insomnia, somnambulism and night terrors. 

• Adjustment disorders: work-related and post-traumatic stress, bereavement, divorce, adolescence, post-vacation syndrome, etc.

If you require more sessions, they will be available at a special price through DKV Club Salud y Bienestar.
