FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

Mindler operates in Region Stockholm, therefore the usual patient fee of SEK 250 applies. Your treatment is included in high-cost protection (högkostnadsskydd), which means that you pay the patient fee until you’ve reached the limit for free card (frikort) in your region. Once you register your free card in the app, you pay nothing for your treatment for as long as the free card is valid. You can find more information about free card and patient fees on 1177.se.

If you live in Region Stockholm, you pay a patient fee for both video sessions and internet-based CBT programs (iCBT). You pay for the video sessions directly in the app, and for iCBT you are invoiced per treatment week (regardless of how many programs you complete in the app). If you live outside of Region Stockholm, you don’t pay a patient fee for iCBT, only SEK 250 per video session.

If you are covered by the Swedish social insurance you are entitled to subsidised health care in Sweden. Then you can use Mindler wherever you are, as long as you have access to an internet connection that supports video and audio.

If you are unsure about whether you are covered by the Swedish social insurance system you can contact “Försäkringskassan” (the Swedish Social Insurance Agency) to find out.

If you go to book an appointment in the app you can filter amongst all available psychologists after certain specialities.

You can choose any one you get a good feeling about and seems to have the right specialities.

In accordance with our terms of use it is not allowed to book several psychologists at the same time, but you can change psychologist once if you feel for some reason it is not working between the two of you.

You can cancel or reschedule on your own in the app up until 48 hours before the appointed time. When there is less than 48 hours before the appointed time you need to contact our support either by messaging Support Center in your settings or sending an email to info@mindler.se.

Free card/high-cost protection means that you do not pay more than SEK 1200 in patient fee’s over a twelve-month period for your health care.

You can enter your free card number and expiration date as payment when booking your meeting.

If you have an electronic free card you can find your free card details on 1177.se.

If you have not reached the high-cost protection, your patient fees will be registered automatically if you are a resident of a region that is connected to the national service, E-frikort. If your region is not connected, you need to register your receipts at a health care center in your region.

A common question we get is whether you can see the same psychologist during the entire treatment. The answer is yes.

In fact, to get continuity in treatment, it is important that you do not jump around between different psychologists. If for some reason it would not work between you and your psychologist, you can change once.

Information about your visits to Mindler is displayed on 1177/My care contacts. The journal entry itself is not displayed there, only the visit date and diagnosis. You can read your journal entries via My journal.

The visits are registered by our partners Kungsholmens Husläkarmottagning and Beckomberga Vårdcentral in the Stockholm Region.
