Digital health applications – apps for your health
Digital health applications—DiGA for short—are certified medical apps. They assist in the detection, treatment, or monitoring of health problems.
Your advantages
- Targeted support in everyday life – therapy and support that can be used digitally and flexibly
- Tested quality – approved by the BfArM and medically evaluated
- Costs covered by ZF BKK – if requirements are met
- Secure handling of your data – high standards of data protection and information security
- Close coordination with your doctor's office – evaluations can be discussed together
With a doctor's prescription or medical certificate, we cover the costs for all applications listed in the official DiGA directory.
Prevention or pure fitness apps are not included.
How it works

Submit your doctor's prescription or an informal application with medical evidence to us – simply via the online office, or alternatively by mail or email.
