Trusting, at eye level and open - that's how Insuring Digital Health was in 2024 too
Corinna Herrmann
THE meeting place for leading health insurance companies and digital health startups took place again this year. For the 6th time, we brought together innovative players at “Insuring Digital Health” (IDH) to promote needs-based and digital solutions for patients. The event took place at CUBEX ONE in Mannheim.

The participants of the Insuring Digital Health 2024
IDH participants appreciate the open, trusting exchange at eye level in a manageable setting. The trusting and intimate atmosphere that we have built up over the years enables in-depth, honest discussions. It's not just about networking, but about shaping the future of healthcare together. Our startup coaching and careful pre-selection process ensure that we not only create opportunities, but curate meaningful, impactful collaborations.
Christiane Heidrich, Group Head of Managed Care at BIG direkt gesund, summed it up: “Inspiration and motivation, both of which we are taking away from the event. The excellently selected care solutions motivate us to act. We are therefore very much looking forward to deepening discussions and starting new collaborations. Thanks to Lisa Tschalenko and the entire team from 5-HT Chemistry & Health for the great organization and the once again very successful pre-selection. This will remain a fixed date in the BIG direkt gesund calendar. We look forward to the continuation in 2025.”
