Psychotherapy authorisation with Sanitas: sessions, blocks and clinical renewal
Sanitas psychotherapy: what is clear and what is not
Sanitas keeps medicosblua.es as the provider channel for professionals with an agreement. The exact number of authorisable psychotherapy sessions per block, renewal conditions and behaviour by treatment subtype depend on the centre agreement and the specific policy. Public sources do not expose the full matrix, so the clinic must measure its real pattern before promising continuity.
Therapeutic continuity as an operational factor
Psychotherapy has a particularity versus other treatments: interruption affects not only billing but also clinical continuity. An authorisation expiring without anyone requesting renewal stops therapy in the middle of a process the patient has been building with the professional for months. The clinical cost of interruption is hard to quantify but real, and stacks on the economic cost of sessions delivered without cover.
Usual renewal documentation
Renewal of a Sanitas psychotherapy block requires documenting clinical evolution, not repeating the original request. The evolution report by the psychologist or psychiatrist usually includes continuity indication, proposed sessions for the next block and, depending on subtype, updated diagnosis. The request arrives complete when the professional has loaded the report before the current block runs out.
How SaludComply approaches it
SaludComply links every psychotherapy block to the patient record, the treating professional and a used-sessions counter. As the block approaches its end, the agent prepares renewal with the evolution report the professional has loaded and the admin approves before submitting to the Sanitas portal. Therapeutic continuity stops depending on someone remembering the block is about to run out.
