Gap Cover from Zestlife – Keeping Compcare Members Covered

December 9, 2021

Gap cover for Compcare is almost like an antibiotic. It treats the symptoms causing you so much stress around those shortfall amounts that need paying. Specialists in South Africa are unregulated, and this means that they can charge what they like. They charge far more than what the medical aid scheme will pay. If you don’t have gap cover, then you’re the one who will have to pay these bills. When you think of heart bypass surgery, the gap amount can add up to thousands upon thousands of Rands. It’s why so many people in South Africa file for bankruptcy – they were caught off-guard without gap cover.

Compcare is a medical scheme in South Africa which is growing in popularity because they happen to cover professional athletes. They offer some options to suit the clients. The medical scheme also has an excellent track record and has proved to have sound financial management.

Compcare has sought after features:

  • members only have to pay for the first three child dependants – all other children are added free of charge.
  • Compcare also offers countless oncology benefits, unlimited dentistry benefit, unlimited general practitioner benefits as well as free access to their lifestyle- and wellness programme, among others.
