You can find the technical requirements for the video tool as well as important information on data protection in the FAQ of the RED Medical video tool.
For a video counselling that complies with data protection regulations and is adapted to your needs, it is important that you send us the following documents before the appointment that you have made by phone. The forms for this can be found above.

Procedure
Once all forms have been filled out and signed, the video consultation can be carried out by our psychologists. On the day of your appointment at the latest, you will be sent the dial-in link via the RED Medical video tool. Open this link on the day of your appointment – preferably in Safari, Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox. Then enter your name for the video consultation. Your name is only visible to the person doing the consultation. The psychologist will start the online application at the agreed time so that the consultation can begin.
If you have not received an email, check your spam folder first. If there is no email in there either, the psychologist will call you at the agreed time and give you the access code.
