What is gap cover?
It is an insurance product which provides cover to ease the tariff gap between your medical aid and medical providers who charge above your medical aid tariff. It is not a medical scheme product nor is it a substitute for medical cover. Our products provide cover such as:
- Co-payment cover
- Sub limit cover
- Cancer cover
- Casualty ward benefit
- Dread Disease Benefit
- Premium Waiver Benefit
Why do I need it?
Gap cover is necessary for those South Africans who have medical aid cover. Belonging to a medical aid scheme does not necessarily mean that all your medical expenses are 100% covered. There are instances where services which are rendered by medical professionals are charged at rates which are above those of the medical scheme tariffs. In these instances, this is an appropriate insurance product which will cover you.
Gap cover is a short-term insurance product which helps prevent financial catastrophe for policy holders. Medical expenses can escalate very quickly, and you do not want to find yourself in a position where these expenses cause life changing financial catastrophe.
