Once you have established that you have a valid Claim, you will be required to complete this Claim form.
Please note that this is not an automatic process, and you will be required to submit a separate Claim form to the Claim that has been submitted to your Medical Scheme. |
 |
You have six months from the first day that you were hospitalised to submit your Claim and relevant documentation. Any
Claim received for the first time after the six month period has expired, will not be honoured. |
 |
Please note that if you are a VAT registered vendor, this insurance claim settlement could potentially create a liability to pay output VAT to SARS i.t.o. S8 (8) of the VAT Act. |
 |
Claims are assessed on a line by line basis. Each line has a code on your service provider’s account that accumulates to the total amount charged. Your medical aid must pay a portion of the cost per line from your hospital benefit in order for that claim line shortfall to be reviewed by your Gap cover. |
 |
Claims flagged as Prescribed Minimum Benefit (PMB) may be investigated with your medical aid or discussed with your service provider. PMBs are a set of defined benefits that medical aids are required to cover by law. This means that as a medical aid member, you shouldn’t incur any out-of-pocket medical expenses related to a PMB. |
 |
Processing of insurance information is done in accordance with applicable legislation, as well as our Privacy Policy which can be found in our Compliance and Trust Centre on our website: www.kaelo.co.za and www.genric.co.za. |
 |
When submitting the Claim form, you will need to provide supporting documents as detailed below in the checklist.
