Have you been caught off guard by an unexpected co-payment before admitted to hospital for a procedure?

Most medical schemes have introduced co-payments on a list of specified medical procedures.  These co-payments are typically applied to the following procedures:

  • Endoscopic procedures –  gastroscopy, laparoscopy, sigmoidoscopy
  • MRI/CT scans
  • Dental procedures in hospital
  • Spinal surgery
  • Co-payment on oncology treatment once you reach the limit
  • Hospital admission fees

Co-payments can vary from R900 to R20 000, depending on the medical scheme option and procedure.

Paying a monthly premium of R200 – R400 for a Gap Cover product can protect your household budget against these unexpected expenses and save you money in the long run.
