Since 2020 physicians and psychotherapist in Germany can prescribe digital interventions. The interventions have to meet safety and data privacy requirements and must prove their effectiveness. Eight interventions are available in the field of neurology: Two for multiple sclerosis (elevida, levidex), three for insomnia (HelloBetter Schlafen, somnio, somnovia), one for aphasia (neolexon Aphasie), one for mild cognitive impairment (NeuroNation MED), and one for migraine headache prophylaxis (sinCephalea - Migräneprophylaxe). In Germany, digital interventions can be prescribed to outpatients and as a post-hospital treatment.
