Invest in GapCover to optimise your medical scheme membership
Members of a medical scheme are often met with a nasty surprise when needing to go to hospital for a medical procedure. Often the cover offered by their medical scheme is not enough and they end up with a financial shortfall between what their medical scheme pays and the actual cost of their medical procedure or treatment.
Medical service providers can charge up to 500% more than what your medical scheme will pay.
This shortfall or gap amount becomes an out of pocket expense for you to pay, unless you have GapCover®.
GapCover® and Combined Cover are insurance policies that medical scheme members can take out to get cover against the medical shortfalls and/or co-payments that occur during hospital procedures.
GapCover® provides cover for the difference in the amount charged by a Registered Medical Professional and the Medical Scheme Rate for services rendered while admitted in hospital AND CoPay Cover provides cover for co-payments charged by your medical scheme for in-patient or out-patient procedures.
There is also an option to take out Combined Cover, a neatly packaged policy that includes GapCover and CoPay Cover at a preferential rate.
