If you have statutory health insurance in Germany, you can have 1-2 preventive measures per year subsidized by your health insurance. It is important to note that only health courses which have been certified by the Zentrale Prüfstelle für Prävention in Germany (ZPP) are subsidized by the health insurance.
The 7Mind Mindfulness-Based Stress Management (ABSM) course is listed with the ZPP as follows:
"Online Course Mindfulness-Based Stress Management with 7Mind"
Course ID: KU-ST-NAKHWV (until Dec 4th, 2021: KU-ST-Y4D4YT)
Course instructor: René Träder
If you book the prevention course for 75 Euro (www.7mind.de/krankenkasse), you can get up to 100% of the costs reimbursed by your health insurance. You can find out more about the reimbursement procedure here www.7mind.de/krankenkasse (in German) or directly from your health insurance company (just ask about subsidies for health courses).
Can I purchase other 7Mind courses/subscriptions and get reimbursed?
No. ONLY certified prevention courses are reimbursable, which we offer for 75 Euro. If you book the course with us, we will also give you access to all the other non-certified 7Mind Plus content (https://7mind.zendesk.com/hc/de/articles/360017082999) for one year. The ABSM course is not part of the 7Mind Plus content and therefore not included in a subscription or the lifetime license.
Does the health insurance package renew itself automatically?
No. Your access to the ABSM course and, if you have also opted for it, the complete library of 7Mind expires after 12 months. After that, depending on the conditions of your health insurance and the exhaustion of your prevention budget, you can book another prevention course with us and have it reimbursed. I currently have a monthly/annual subscription.
I currently have a monthly/annual subscription. Can this be offset against the health insurance package for 75 Euro?
No. If you have an active 7Mind subscription with Apple, Google, Chargebee, or FastSpring, then it will be paused at 7Mind and continue after the 12 months are up. We additionally recommend canceling your current subscription so it doesn't renew itself during the year.
Here's an example: You have an annual subscription with Apple that will automatically renew in March 2022. If in the meantime you purchase the prevention course for 75 Euro, your yearly subscription with 7Mind will not expire until March 2023. However, if you do not cancel your subscription with Apple, you will be charged for your subscription in March 2022 and the term with us will extend until March 2024.
You'll need the following for your refund:
Please check your email inbox after completing your purchase of the prevention course and keep the payment receipt sent to you for your refund.
Complete the ABSM course within a minimum of 8 weeks and a maximum of 12 months to receive your certificate of participation. You can find the course in the 7Mind App library under the "Prevention" category. In order to successfully complete the course, you must have completed all eight units of the course at least once.
Upon completion of the course, please send us an email at support@7mind.de to request your certificate of participation: We only need your full name and the email address with which you are registered at 7Mind, and we will send you your ZPP certificate.
You can then submit the certificate together with the payment receipt with your health insurance company in order to receive your reimbursement.
I have private insurance, live in Switzerland/Austria, or am under 18. Can I also take advantage of this offer?
Unfortunately, this offer is only valid for people who live in Germany, are over 18 years old, and have German statutory insurance. Of course, you can still sign up for the 7Mind annual subscription directly in the 7Mind app. If you would like to do so, please go to www.7mind.de/preise.
Do I always have to pay 75 Euro in advance?
Usually yes. However, we work more closely with some health insurance companies. Here you can get direct access via the insurance provider without having to pay anything in advance:
