Jenius gap cover protects you from those unexpected healthcare costs that medical schemes don’t cover.
Significantly, medical shortfall insurance (another name for it) is necessary when your medical aid only pays for treatments at lower rates than charged by medical specialists.
For instance, your hospital plan imposes co-payments for certain treatments and procedures, or your health insurance provider has limits on the amount they will pay for some treatments
