Description

Atefe Nastaran and co-authors ask students and mental health providers in Hamadan, Iran, what good insurance for online mental health care should look like. Mental disorders are rising fast among young adults, and digital services can widen access if coverage fits real needs. Policy built without users' voices often misses what matters to them.

Through in-depth interviews with thirty-three students and fifteen providers, the team draws out the features people want covered. Content analysis groups their views into themes about cost, privacy, service range, and trust. The findings give insurers and universities a user-shaped blueprint for covering care that students would actually use.
