Curemed Cures the Terrible Shortfalls That Medical Aid Schemes Encounter
In fact, 100% cover does not mean comprehensive cover. That is because many medical specialists can and do often charge rates that are more than that 100% that medical schemes pay.

f there are additional costs, these will have to come from you, from your pocket. This excess amount is known as Gap cover, and in South Africa, it has become a critical supplement to medical aid.
In many instances, Gap cover does not form a component of your medical aid scheme. It doesn’t fall even under the medical aid jurisdiction. It falls under the same jurisdiction as that regulated by short-term insurance.
If you read the small print of most of the insurance companies, you will soon learn that there are always going to be financial shortfalls that you will end up having to pay.
With Gap cover, those extra expenses which can be pretty hefty will be directly refunded to you and not to the hospital or your specialist. From those funds, you will be responsible for reimbursing the specific individuals or institutions correctly and appropriately.
Curemed – Rest in Hospital without Nasty Surprises
Generally speaking, you will only claim Gap cover once your medical aid scheme has paid all the required parties that needed payment.
For instance, if you have an expensive stay in a hospital and even if your medical aid does cover some costs, there will always be other bills to pay.
With Gap cover, you get to enjoy up to 500% of scheme tariffs when you are in the hospital which means that there won’t be any extra amounts you need to pay. You also won’t have any other financial woes to stress about.
If your medical aid scheme requires you to pay a co-payment for certain specific hospital procedures, Gap cover will be able to help you with this too.
