How much will our services cost you?

Your monthly premium will not be affected by appointing us as your servicing consultant. Commissions payable in respect of medical schemes are governed by legislation and paid directly by the Medical Scheme to intermediaries out of their non-healthcare costs. As such, these fees are not payable by you, the member.

Gap Cover

Gap cover insurance has become a critical part of healthcare planning, as most in-hospital procedures that require treatment by a surgeon and anesthetist could leave medical aid members with the risk of large shortfalls on their medical accounts.

This happens because medical practitioners are entitled to set their own fees, which could be several times more costly than the medical scheme tariff and this cover will make up for this shortfall between the medical scheme tariff and the actual cost incurred for in-hospital treatment.
