Get your claims paid quickly and easily by following these simple steps.
1. Ensure
your banking details are correct
We pay claims refunds by electronic transfer (EFT) into your bank account. Please call us on 0860 002 108 if you need to update your banking details.
2. Check your account and receipt
To allow us to process your claim quickly and efficiently, please make sure that your account
and receipt show the following:
- Your name, initials and surname
- Your medical aid membership number
- The treatment date
- The name of the patient as shown on your membership card
- The amount charged
- The tariff
- The ICD-10 code (diagnosis code)
- Healthcare provider’s practice number
Please check that prescriptions for medicine show all the details above as well as the
correct amount of medicine dispensed. If the pharmacy excludes any of these details, we will
not be able to process your claim.
3. Check that
your claim has been paid
We pay claims weekly. Every month, you will receive a statement showing your claims and available benefits. You can also view the status of your claims on the Member Zone, Member App and on WhatsApp.
Remember you must submit your claim within four months of the date of treatment or service for your claim to be processed.
