Krankenversicherung Kosten für Leistungen zur Prävention übernehmen

Insured persons can find out from their health insurance company what prevention options are available. The health insurance companies provide quality-assured offers.

You can avoid or minimize the risk of becoming ill through your behaviour. The statutory health insurance funds offer services to help you do this.

For example

• with nutrition
• in questions of alcohol or tobacco consumption
• with exercise
• mental well-being
• issues relating to ageing
• general lifestyle issues

The health insurance funds also take into account the promotion of occupational health protection.

The health insurance fund can provide a behavioral prevention service if it is certified, i.e. quality-tested, by a health insurance fund or by a third party commissioned to perform this task on its behalf.

Fees may apply. Please contact the responsible office.

Some health insurance companies offer their own prevention courses. However, you can also choose a course from a quality-approved external provider. Ask your health insurance provider about the procedure.
