Care planning and healthcare advice

  • DSS Hälsa's Health Team helps the insured with medical advice from registered nurses by phone on 08 – 40 00 61 21 or digitally via My DSS where you can report a case to us 24 hours a day. Our Health Team has many years of experience from different specializations, and they offer professional advice on all health problems, including those that do not require professional treatment or are not covered by insurance.

Health Navigator

  • Through our unique Health Navigator concept, we also offer advice on the public healthcare system's treatment options, such as patient rights, appeals process, guidance on waiting times, how to best approach your local healthcare center, or how to take advantage of the right to choose where you want to seek care. All examinations and public options in primary care are included. We also help review medical records and notes from hospitals and doctors, as well as other help if needed.

  • In the event that an injury can only be treated within public healthcare or is not compensated by the insurance, we offer the insured advice and support regarding the care and treatment that takes place within public healthcare.

  • The insurance covers costs for necessary and reasonable examination, treatment or surgery in a compensable claim and is carried out by a doctor appointed by us.

The examination and treatment must primarily be carried out by a doctor as close to the insured's home in Sweden as possible.
