CO-PAY PLUS300

Our booster option covers specific medical procedures, treatments, scans, and surgeries that some medical aid plans exclude. It also covers the most often experienced in- and out-of-hospital medical expense shortfalls for medical procedures that aren’t excluded, and refunds co-payments.

One Gap Cover policy covers you and your spouse, even if you belong to different medical aid plans, including the dependants registered on either medical aid plan.

Child dependants registered on your or your spouse’s medical aid plan may remain on your Gap Cover policy regardless of age. However, when a child dependant applies for their own medical aid membership, they must apply for their own policy.

A full-time student 26 or younger may remain on your policy even if they belong to a different medical aid plan, provided proof of full-time studies is submitted annually. Distance and online learning don’t qualify.
