The article describes the relationship of health anxiety with other types of anxiety disorders. It is shown that, unlike ICD11, in DSM-V, the term hypochondria was replaced by a disorder of distorted interpretation of somatic symptoms and disease-oriented anxiety disorder. The concept of interoceptive awareness for understanding health anxiety is detailed. Cognitive behavioral models of health anxiety by P. Salkovskis et al. are described. and Albert Junyang Higgins-Chen et al. The general modules of remote cognitive behavioral therapy of health anxiety are systematized. The overall effectiveness of remote CBT protocols of health anxiety is shown and its predictors are identified.
