Medical insurance
Medical insurance products are alternatives to medical aid in that they are more affordable . These products are governed either by short-term or long-term law, and not by medical aid regulations. They therefore do not have to include the prescribed set of minimum benefits and can impose different waiting-period criteria, as well as a maximum entry age limit. To keep these products affordable, they are mostly focused on out-of-hospital primary-care expenses such as general practitioner consultations, prescribed medication, basic dentistry and some optometry cover. These benefits are subject to strict network-provider rules. A defined limit for emergency hospitalization stabilization or illness might be included, but this has an impact on the price of the product.

Gap Cover
Gap cover is a short-term insurance product designed to provide extra protection for those who already have medical aid. It covers the deficit between your medical scheme’s tariff (MST) and the actual rates charged by private healthcare professionals.
Medical aid schemes in South Africa currently reimburse doctors and specialists at 100%, 200%, or 300% of the scheme rate. In reality, however, professional medical providers may charge up to five times the base tariff.
By subscribing to gap cover you protect yourself and your family against this financial disparity, potentially avoiding significant out-of-pocket medical expenses.
