GLOSSARY OF TERMS USED IN THIS GUIDE:• BENEFIT LIMIT:

The maximum amount that the member or dependant is entitled to for a specific benefit category, taking into account the Scheme Rules and Scheme Tariff paid for goods, services or appliances.

• CO-PAYMENT:The part of the account that a member pays in situations where the benefit does not cover the relevant health service, or when the provider charges fees that are higher than the Scheme Tariff.

• DEPENDANT:A spouse or partner, child or parent who is dependent on the member for care and support.

• PBPA: Per Beneficiary Per Annum

• DESIGNATED SERVICE PROVIDER (DSP):The service provider that the Scheme has chosen to provide certain medical care for PMBs.

• EXCLUSIONS:Any treatment, medications, appliances or similar that are not covered in terms of the Rules of the Scheme.

• FORMULARY: A list of medicines.

• ICD-10 CODE:The International Classification of Diseases (ICD) – 10. A system that organises diseases and the complications connected to these diseases according to specific categories.

• MEDICAL SCHEMES ACT: The law that governs all medical schemes in South Africa.

• OVERALL ANNUAL LIMIT (OAL): The limit that every member and their dependants cannot exceed during each benefit year.

• PRE-AUTHORISATION:The prior approval of scheduled surgeries and procedures. Whenever hospitalisation is required (ER, triage, that already exists at the time a member or their dependant joins the Scheme (scans and casualty ward) this must be confirmed with the Scheme and Managed Care. Please also not that there are certain day-to-day benefits that require pre-authorisation.

• PRE-EXISTING MEDICAL CONDITION: A medical condition or illness.

• PRESCRIBED MINIMUM BENEFITS (PMBs): A list of conditions, specified in the Medical Schemes Act 131 of 1998, for which all members are entitled to treatment.

SAMWUMED | MEMBER GUIDE 2019 1

Page 8: 2019 - HOME | SAMWUMED

• PRESCRIBED CYCLES:The number of times a member is allowed to access certain benefits during a specific benefit year(s).

• PREFERRED PROVIDER:A provider that the Scheme has negotiated favourable rates with and that can be used as an alternative to a DSP in the event of an emergency. A Preferred Provider may also be used if a DSP is not within reasonable travelling distance or does not offer the treatment or services required.

• PRO-RATED BENEFITS:Benefits allocated to a member based on the number of contributions they have paid. This applies to members who join after March of the benefit year.

• SCHEME TARIFF:The rate according to which the Scheme pays for claims.

• SUB-LIMIT:Forms part of a broader benefit category.

• WAITING PERIOD:A period during which members will not be covered even though they are paying contributions.

SAMWUMED | MEMBER GUIDE 20192

Page 9: 2019 - HOME | SAMWUMED

• 1 MONTH WAITING PERIODWe have reduced the general waiting period from 3 months to 1 for new members.Dependants who join after the main member will be subject to a 3 month waitingperiod.

• LOWEST CONTRIBUTION INCREASES IN THE INDUSTRY Our contribution increases are about the lowest in the industry. Whilst we have reviewed the Overall Annual and Hospital Limits – our analysis indicates that this may only adversely affect approximately 3% of members. The average claim spend of an average family remains at approximately R30 000.00 – so in simple terms a million rands worth of benefit is not generally going to be consumed by the average family – except being used to woo and impress members. The only incentive this creates is for opportunistic service providers. In the event that a member does require high level care for PMB conditions – THERE ARE NO LIMITS.

• ACCESS TO PRIVATE HOSPITALS* Our hospital contracts and networks have been reviewed to include more choice for our members and PMB level of care in private hospitals, subject to terms and conditions.

• WE ARE ABLE TO PROVIDE PERSONALISED SERVICES We have our own marketing infrastructure – this means that we are able to provide personalised services on an exclusive and consistent basis. We have our own offices and are rolling out more offices around the country.

• NO LATE JOINER FEES You do not pay late joiner fees when you join us.

Prescribed Minimum Benefits as shown in Annexure A of the General Regulations, made in terms of the Medical Schemes Act 131 of 1998, override all benefits and limits indicated in this Annexure.

The Prescribed Minimum Benefits are available in conjunction with the Scheme’s contracted managed health care programmes, which include the application of treatment protocols, medicine formularies, pre-authorisation and case management. These measures have been implemented to ensure appropriate and effective delivery of Prescribed Minimum Benefits. See Annexure D - paragraph 7 for a full explanation.

PRESCRIBED MINIMUM BENEFIT (“PMB”) RULES EXTRACT

PRESCRIBED MINIMUM BENEFITS

• The Scheme will pay in full, without co-payment or use of deductibles, the diagnosis, treatment and care costs of the prescribed minimum benefits as per Regulation 8 of the Act, in compliance to agreed tariffs. The Scheme will employ appropriate interventions aimed at improving the efficiency and effectiveness of healthcare provision, including such techniques as requirements for pre-authorisation, the application of treatment protocols, and the use of formularies. (Regulation 8(3)).

• Where a managed health care protocol or a formulary drug preferred by the Scheme, but excluding the PMB algorithm as defined in the Regulation has been ineffective or would cause harm to a beneficiary, the Scheme will fund the cost of the appropriate substitution treatment without a penalty to the beneficiary as required by Regulation 15H and 15I of the Act.

LIMITATION AND RESTRICTION OF BENEFITS

• In cases of an illness of a protracted nature, the Scheme shall have the right to insist upon a member or dependant of a member consulting any particular specialist, the Scheme may nom-inate in consultation with the attending provider.

• The Scheme may require a second opinion in respect of proposed health care service(s) which may result in a claim for benefits and for that purpose the relevant beneficiary shall consult a dental or medical provider nominated by the Scheme and at the cost of the Scheme. In the event that the second opinion proposes different health care service(s) to the first, the Scheme may in its discretion require that the second opinion proposals be followed, unless in terms of the managed health care programme.

• In cases where a specialist is consulted without the recommendation of a Family Practitioner, the benefit allowed by the Scheme may, at its discretion, be limited to the amount that would have been paid to the Family Practitioner for the same service.

• Unless otherwise decided by the Scheme, benefits in respect of medicines obtained on a prescription are limited to one month’s supply (or to the nearest unbroken pack) for every such prescription or repeat thereof.

• If the Scheme or its managed health care programme contracted service supplier has funding guidelines or protocols in respect of covered services and supplies, beneficiaries will only qualify for benefits in respect of those services and supplies with reference to the available funding guidelines and protocols with due regard to the provision of Regulation 15(H) and 15(I).

GENERAL BENEFITS AND LIMITS

SAMWUMED | MEMBER GUIDE 20198

Page 15: 2019 - HOME | SAMWUMED

• If the Scheme does not have funding guidelines or protocols in respect of benefits for services and supplies referred to in Annexure B, beneficiaries will only qualify for benefits in respect of those services and supplies if the Scheme or its managed health care programme contracted service supplier acknowledges them as medically necessary, and then subject to such conditions as the Scheme or its managed health care programme contracted service supplier may impose.

“Medically necessary” refers to health services or supplies that meet all the following requirements:

• they are required to restore normal function of an affected limb, organ, or system; • no alternative exists that has a better outcome, is more cost-effective, or has a lower risk; • they are accepted by the relevant service provider as optimal and necessary for the specific

condition, and at an appropriate level to render safe and adequate care; • they are not rendered or provided for the convenience of the relevant beneficiary or service

provider;• outcome studies are available and acceptable to the Scheme in respect of such services

or supplies.• they are not rendered or provided because of personal choice or preference of the relevant

beneficiary or service provider, while other medically appropriate, more cost-effective alternatives exist.

• The Scheme reserves the right not to pay for any new medical technology or, investigational procedures, interventions, new drugs or medicine as applied in clinical medicine, including new indications for existing medicines or technologies, unless the following clinical data relating to the above have been presented to and accepted by the Medical Advisory Committee and such data demonstrating their:

• therapeutic role in clinical medicine;• cost-efficiency and affordability;• value relative to existing services or supplies;• role in drug therapy as established by the Schemes’ managed health care programme

contracted service supplier.

• In the event that:

• the treatment of an extended chronic sickness condition becomes necessary; • a disease or a condition (including pregnancy) requires specialised or intensive treatment; • the treatment of any disease or condition becomes of a protracted nature or requires

extended medicine and such treatment is given in or by a non-designated service provider or a preferred provider, the case may be evaluated in terms of the relevant managed health care programme and, having regard to the aforementioned diseases or conditions in question, the Scheme may require or advise:

• the transfer as arranged by the Scheme of that beneficiary to a public hospital or other designated service provider where appropriate care is available, with due regard to Regulation 8(3)(c);

• the application of a limited drug formulary; • both such transfer and restricted drug formulary;• in order to conserve or maximise efficient utilisation of available benefits.

SAMWUMED | MEMBER GUIDE 2019 9

Page 16: 2019 - HOME | SAMWUMED

• In the event that a decision has been, the following conditions shall apply:

• in respect of Prescribed Minimum Benefits, no benefit limit shall apply provided treatment is given in or by a public hospital or designated service provider. If for any reason the beneficiary involuntarily receives treatment in or by a non-designated service provider, no co-payment applies;

• in respect of non-Prescribed Minimum Benefit conditions, if the Scheme or its managed health care programme contracted service supplier should determine that any annual benefit limits, as set out in Annexure B, and available to the beneficiary receiving such treatment, are likely to be exceeded in the course of the year, the beneficiary may be advised to move to a public hospital or designated service provider or to accept a limited drug formulary, or both, in order to conserve available benefits.

In such designated service provider or public facility any costs incurred over and above the limit stipulated in Annexure B (excluding Prescribed Minimum Benefit conditions), shall be the member’s responsibility. The member may elect on behalf of himself or his beneficiary, to remain in the private hospital, or remain on the full drug formulary available, or both, in which event the Scheme shall pay up to the benefit limit stipulated in Annexure B, whereafter the member shall be responsible for payment, direct to the private hospital, for any further treatment in such hospital, or for payment direct to the supplier for further medicine.

• The Scheme (or its managed health care programme contracted service supplier on behalf of the Scheme) may from time to time contract with or credential specific provider groups (networks) or centres of excellence as determined by the Scheme in order to ensure cost effective and appropriate care. The Scheme reserves the right not to fund or partially fund services acquired outside of these networks, provided reasonable steps are taken by the Scheme to ensure access to the network, subject to Prescribed Minimum Benefits.

• The Scheme reserves the right not to pay for procedures performed by non-recognised provid-ers (where applicable).

• Certain procedures may be associated with a significant learning curve and/or are not taught routinely at local universities and/or require special training and experience, including that aimed at maintenance of expertise, and/or need access to certain infrastructure for quality outcomes, where such procedures have been identified by the Scheme’s managed health care programme contracted service supplier. Recognised providers are those who have been acknowledged by meeting minimum training and practice criteria for the safe and effective performance of such procedures. Recognition occurs as a result of a formal application process by interested providers and adjudication of relevant information against competency guidelines by the managed health care programme contracted service supplier and/or appointed credentialing body. Criteria for formal recognition are informed by clinical evidence, clinical guidelines and/or expert opinion.

Your medical aid contribution is generally paid for from two sources: your employer’s subsidy and your monthly salary. Your employer deducts contributions from your salary each month and pays it over to the Scheme. Contributions are calculated according to income and family size and are paid monthly in arrears.

The Scheme does not have access to your salary.

The Scheme will advise you in cases where incorrect contributions are received or if your employer has not paid the correct amount to the Scheme. If you join after 31 March, you will be subject to pro-rated benefits.

SAMWUMED’S PREMIUMS AND MEMBERSHIP DEPARTMENT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL ASPECTS OF MEMBERSHIP AND THE COLLECTION OF CONTRIBUTIONS.

All local government employees have the opportunity to change their medical aid options during the Freedom of Association period (also known as the “window period”) from October until the end of November each year. Members who wish to make this change must notify the Scheme in writing by submitting an Option change form via their Human Resource Department by no later than 15 Decemberof the same year. All benefit option changes must be confirmed by January each year.

Section 7 of the South African Local Government Bargain Council’s Main Collective Agreement states that “medical scheme members may make an election regarding movement from one ac-credited medical scheme to another accredited medical scheme on an annual basis before 01 January”.

MOVEMENT BETWEEN SCHEMES DURING THE YEAR IS NOT ALLOWED.

Membership application and dependant registration forms make provision for the disclosure of pre-existing health conditions. Failure to provide the appropriate information to the Scheme could lead to the termination of your or your dependant’s membership. Single principal members are issued with one membership card and families receive two cards. The Scheme does not charge members for replacement of lost or stolen cards.

It is important that the Scheme has the correct identity numbers for members and dependants. Without it, you might not be able to use your benefits. Please contact the Scheme to ensure that we have your correct telephone numbers, address, and details of your dependants.

If your information changes during the year, it is important to let the Scheme know by contacting 0860 104 117.

MEMBERSHIP MANAGEMENT

ALL INFORMATION THAT YOU DISCLOSE TO THE SCHEME IS CONSIDERED CONFIDENTIAL.

You should be mindful not to disclose information such as your membership number or hand over tax or membership certificates/cards to any third party.

SAMWUMED | MEMBER GUIDE 201928

Page 35: 2019 - HOME | SAMWUMED

REGISTERING DEPENDANTS

• We have reduced the general waiting period from 3 months to 1 for new members. Dependants who join after the main member will be subject to a 3 month waiting period.

• To register a dependant, a Dependant Registration form must be completed and submitted to the Scheme via your Human Resource Department along with the required documentation such as copies of birth certificates when registering children; affidavits and marriage certificates for spouses and partners; proof of study and/or affidavits proving dependency for dependants over the age of 21.

• The Dependant Registration form makes provision for the disclosure of pre-existing conditions that prospective dependants might have. Depending on the severity of the condition(s), certain waiting periods may be considered by the Scheme before dependants can claim benefits.

• Failure to disclose these pre-existing conditions could limit or exclude a dependant from claiming benefits, according to provision 11.5 of the Scheme Rules, which states that “The Board may, in its absolute discretion, exclude from benefits or terminate the membership of a member or dependant whom the Board finds guilty of abusing the benefits and privileges of the Scheme by presenting false claims or making a material misrepresentation or non-disclosure of factual information or who, in the opinion of the Board, is guilty of misconduct that would either compromise the achievement of the aims and objects of the Scheme or bring the Scheme into disrepute. In such event, he or she may be required by the Board to refund to the Scheme any sum which, but for his or her abuse of the benefits or privileges of the Scheme, would not have been disbursed on his or her behalf.”

CHILD DEPENDANTS

A child dependant is someone up to the age of 21 but not older than 25 years. Student dependants must be attending a recognised educational institution and be without a regular income. To register a child dependant, a birth certificate, identity document, or affidavit (where the child’s surname is not the same as the main member’s) is required. Proof of study or medical report must be submitted for child dependants who are students or mentally/physically disabled.

Grandchildren can be registered, provided that the member is responsible for their care and financial support. An affidavit from parents and member confirming dependency is required and this is subject to an annual review.

BIRTH OF A CHILD

Members must notify the Scheme within 30 days of the birth of a child to qualify for immediate benefits. The birth certificate must be submitted along with the Dependant Registration form. A three-month waiting period will be imposed if the registration is not completed within this time.

ADULT DEPENDANTS

Adult dependants are 21 years and older and can be a spouse or partner. Spouses who are registered within 30 days of marriage will qualify for benefits immediately. A marriage certificate or affidavit must be submitted with the registration form.

A three-month waiting period will be imposed if the registration is not completed within this time.

Dependants over the age of 21, who are not spouses or partners, but are dependent on the main member for care and financial support, can be registered as adult dependants. An affidavit proving this dependency is required. Refer to scheme rules for definition.

Exclusions: Any treatment, medications, appliances or similar that are not covered in terms of the Rules of the Scheme is regarded as an exclusion.

Refer to Annexure C of Scheme Rules.

EXCLUSIONSWHAT DOES THE SCHEME NOT PAY FOR?

GETTING AUTHORISATION FOR YOUR HOSPITAL STAY

A Managed Care partner has been contracted by the Scheme to ensure that you and your dependants get cost efficient, quality care in hospital. Managed Care offers you useful advice and their team of doctors and nurses will make sure that you are admitted at the appropriate facility at the correct fee. You must contact Managed Care for pre-authorisation on 0860 33 33 87, at least five (5) working days before a planned procedure or on the first working day after an emergency hospital admission to obtain an authorisation number for your treatment.

Authorisation requests for major surgery should be submitted at least thirty (30) days in advance to allow the Scheme to obtain a second opinion to ensure that you or your dependant receive appropriate treatment.

It is important to note that pre-authorisation is compulsory for hospitalisation and failure to comply could result in a commensurate penalty.

WHY IS PRE-AUTHORISATION NECESSARY?

Pre-authorisation for hospital admissions and certain out-of-hospital care is a key component in managing your access to affordable, appropriate, safe and quality health care. Medscheme’s pre-authorisation requests are adjudicated against clinical and funding guidelines as well as set criteria in recognising healthcare providers who are able to perform certain procedures. Once you are pre-approved, the healthcare provider and hospital account will then be paid according to your selected benefit option and available benefits.

• As soon as you and your team of doctors agree on a treatment plan, ask your doctor to forward it to the SAMWUMED Oncology Management Programme. An Oncology case manager will review the plan, discuss it with your doctor and advise on the outcome of your application.

• You will then receive an authorisation letter for the authorised treatment. If there are certain items that are not covered, you will need to discuss this with your doctor.

• Please ensure that your doctor informs the SAMWUMED Oncology Management Programme of any change in your treatment, as your authorisation will have to be re-assessed and updated accordingly to ensure that your claim(s) are not rejected or paid from the incorrect benefit.

WHAT HAPPENS IN AN EMERGENCY?

Don’t worry. In the case of an emergency situation you or a family member may pre-authorise the admission on the first working day after being admitted.

Page 38: 2019 - HOME | SAMWUMED

WHAT IS A PMB?

Prescribed Minimum Benefits (PMB) is a set of defined benefits that ensure you have access to certain minimum health services, regardless of the benefit option you have selected. In accordance with the Medical Scheme’s Act, medical schemes have to cover the costs related to these conditions which include:

• Any emergency medical admission• A limited set of 270 pre-defined medical conditions• Twenty-six (26) chronic medical conditions

Your doctor will guide you in determining whether your condition falls into one of the PMB conditions. It is vital that you obtain a pre-authorisation for any PMB condition as your scheme may require you to be referred to a designated service provider so that all associated costs are in line with SAMWUMED’s Scheme Rules.

WHAT IS CASE MANAGEMENT AND CARE CO-ORDINATION?

While you are in hospital, our case managers will ensure that the appropriate length of stay and level of care is provided at all times and that appropriate discharge planning takes place.

Medscheme also focuses on care co-ordination to improve the quality of care that you receive while in hospital, and to improve your health status after you are discharged. The benefit of this is that, with your consent, we will share information about your condition, well-being and health within the different managed health care departments as well as with your nominated doctor.

Co-ordinating your care is done through various interventions from pre-admission to eight weeks after you are discharged so that you receive the best health care; reduce your chances of re-admission and encourage you to take responsibility for your own health.

Through care co-ordination you will receive a pre-admission hospital checklist (depending on your type of admission) that will assist you in preparing for hospitalisation and post discharge recovery. You will also be referred to various managed care services and appropriate healthcare providers as and when required.

ACCESS AND CARE

• SAMWUMED has removed State as a Designated Service Provider (DSP) for the treatment of Prescribed Minimum Benefit (PMB) conditions in hospital to ensure our member get value for their money.

• The Scheme still has negotiated favourable rates with various private hospital groups clas-sifying these as Preferred Providers (PPs). This excludes services rendered by attending specialists at these PPs. While the Scheme has secured agreements with certain providers, members might still be faced with possible out-of-pocket expenses based on tariffs above the Scheme’s rate. However negotiations with these networks will continue throughout the year for the benefit of our members.

• SAMWUMED pays for all healthcare services according to the Scheme Tariff, except in cases where involuntary utilisation of a non-DSP took place*.

• In cases of an emergency, you can access the hospital nearest to you if you are not within rea-sonable travelling distance from one of the Scheme’s Designated Service Providers (Melomed or Mediclinic) or a Preferred Provider (PP).

• Depending on where you are in the country, you can access hospital care kindly contact the Managed Care call centre for available facilities.

• It is your responsibility to confirm if your service provider is submitting claims on your behalf (via post or EDI) or if you should submit the account directly to the Scheme. It is common practice for many service providers to request that members settle their accounts in cash and then claim back from the Scheme.

• In instances where you have paid cash, submit the original account and receipt with your member number as reference to the Scheme for reimbursement. Members must be sure that every account they or their provider submits for payment includes the ICD-10 codes for the treatment or products provided. These codes are required by the Scheme to allocate and process payments according to the correct benefit categories.

It is important to choose the right medical scheme not only based on price but by doing research to ensure that the scheme meets your needs and those of your family.

It is also best to change your benefit option at the beginning of the year, if needed, in order to get full benefits.

ADVICE ON CHOOSING A MEDICAL SCHEME OR BENEFIT OPTION

Ensure that the scheme you are considering is duly registered in terms of the Medical Schemes Act 131 of 1998. The names, addresses and telephone numbers of all registered schemes are published on the website of the Council for Medical Schemes at www.medicalschemes.com.

Identify a few schemes and request information about their benefits, contributions, limitations and exclusions. Compare this information provided to see which one meets your needs.

Besides the healthcare benefits also find out what the schemes’ reserves (solvency ratio) are, and non-healthcare expenditure, such as administration costs, to ensure they are in good financial health.

Understand what prescribed minimum benefits (PMBs) are and under what circumstances the chosen scheme provides such cover for you. Here you can look at designated service providers and their proximity to you as well as other networks that provide benefits to members.

HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR MEDICAL SCHEME FOR 2019

ADVICE FOR CURRENT MEDICAL SCHEME MEMBERS

If you are already a member of a scheme, read all the material such as options to change plans. Ensure that you understand how the benefit options operate and select according to your healthcare needs and what you can afford. The registered rules of medical schemes fully disclose detailed information regarding the relevant benefits and contributions. It is essential that you obtain the rules of the scheme or a summary thereof to verify all relevant information to enable you to make an informed choice.

Some people choose to make use of an agent or broker (intermediary). Remember it is not compul-sory to use a broker, but if you do ensure that he/she has been accredited by the CMS and that your selection of a scheme is based on informed consent.

SAMWUMED | MEMBER GUIDE 201938

WHAT IS A MEDICAL SCHEME?Medical Schemes are not for profit organisations.

“[The] ‘business of a medical scheme’ means the business of undertaking liability in return for a premium or contribution:

a) to make provision for the obtaining of any relevant health service;b) to grant assistance in defraying expenditure incurred in connection with the rendering of

any relevant health service; andc) where applicable, to render a relevant health service, either by the medical scheme itself,

or by any supplier or group of suppliers of a relevant health service or by any person, in association with or in terms of an agreement with a medical scheme.”

BUT WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?

Point (a) in the definition means that medical schemes must provide healthcare benefits, including a prescribed package of minimum benefits for healthcare needs. The uncertainty attached to your health poses a number of risks for your medical scheme; the most obvious risk to you is the loss of health itself. This is why medical scheme members buy benefit packages based on their need for healthcare – and why medical schemes are structured in a way that makes them financially sustainable in the long run.

Point (b) in the definition means that monetary contributions are paid in exchange for healthcare benefits. Members of medical schemes have the obligation to pay a relevant contribution which entitles them to access a defined benefits package. Members are encouraged to read up on their rights and responsibilities when accessing benefits, specifically the prescribed minimum benefits or PMBs.

Point (c) in the definition means that medical schemes are allowed to contract with service providers for the provision of comprehensive benefits, including out-of-hospital benefits and PMBs.

HOW THE ACT PROTECTS MEMBERS OF MEDICAL SCHEMES

The definition of the business of a medical scheme, as in the Medical Schemes Act 131 of 1998, was always meant to guide medical schemes on the type of services required to be provided to members in order to operate as a registered medical scheme.

WHAT ARE ADMINISTRATORS?

Medical scheme administrators are privately owned companies with the skills, infrastructure, and capacity to render a full range of administration services to schemes in compliance with prevailing legislation. They are accredited by the Council for Medical Schemes (CMS) in terms of the Medical Schemes Act if they meet the certain criteria. Most medical schemes outsource many of their functions to administrators.

WHAT DO ADMINISTRATORS DO EXACTLY?

Administrators perform a variety of administration functions as per their written contracts and service level agreements with schemes. They utilise comprehensive and integrated information technology systems capable of performing all administration, financial, and management functions.

WHAT IS AN ADMINISTRATOR?

Page 45: 2019 - HOME | SAMWUMED

SAMWUMED | MEMBER GUIDE 2019 39

MEDICAL SCHEMES VS MEDICAL INSURANCE?Medical schemes are not for profit organisations which operate like trust funds.

Short and long-term insurers providing health insurance products are commercially driven for-profit companies. Medical schemes belong to their members, while health insurance companies are owned by shareholders.

Medical schemes espouse unique principles which can only be found in the Medical Schemes Act. These principles are (i) open enrolment, (ii) community rating, and (iii) a set of prescribed minimum benefits, commonly called PMBs.

Open enrolment means that anyone can join a medical scheme and that if you apply for membership, the scheme of your choice cannot turn you away.

Community rating means that all members of a medical scheme pay the same monthly contribution for the same benefits. PMBs ensure that members are fully protected against unforeseen and potentially catastrophic health events.

These principles do not apply to health insurance products.

Anyone can buy a short- or long-term health insurance policy, but the premium you pay will usually depend on the insurer’s assessment of your state of health. Older individuals, or individuals with pre-existing health conditions, will pay more for health insurance cover. At the extreme, health insurance companies may refuse to cover you if they consider that there is too high a risk that you are likely to claim.

Medical scheme administrators maintain member records. Their systems can drill down to detailed information on an individual member. It is the administrator who processes your application for membership and also suspends and terminates it. Administrators collect the monthly member contributions and manage their allocation and reconciling. They ensure that outstanding amounts are collected.

SELF-ADMINISTERED MEDICAL SCHEMES

Some medical schemes do not use administrators. A self-administered scheme undertakes all administration functions with its own resources decisions. Self-administered schemes do not need to be accredited, but they must comply with the same administration standards and are subject to the same on-site evaluation of compliance as third-party administrators.

Page 46: 2019 - HOME | SAMWUMED

SAMWUMED | MEMBER GUIDE 201940

WHAT SHOULD YOU ASK YOUR DOCTOR OR SERVICE PROVIDER BEFORE TREATMENT? • Is this a Prescribed Minimum Benefit?• Is this my medical scheme’s Designated Service Provider?• Do I need authorisation from my medical scheme?• Do you charge at my medical scheme’s tariff?• DURING: Is there a co-payment or levy?• AFTER: Is this medication on my medical scheme’s formulary list?

Prescribed Minimum Benefits (PMBs) are a set of defined benefits to ensure that all medical scheme members have access to certain minimum health services, regardless of the benefit option they have selected. The aim is to provide people with continuous care to improve their health and well-being and to make healthcare more affordable.

PMBs are a feature of the Medical Schemes Act, in terms of which medical schemes have to cover the costs related to the diagnosis, treatment and care of:

• any emergency medical condition;• a limited set of 270 medical conditions; and• 26 chronic conditions defined in the Chronic Diseases List (CDL).

Medical schemes must pay in full, without a co-payment or the use of deductibles, for the diagnosis, treatment and care costs of the Prescribed Minimum Benefit conditions. The medical scheme cannot use your medical savings account to pay for Prescribed Minimum Benefits.

Each option offered by a medical scheme must make provision for the Prescribed Minimum Benefits, including hospital plan options.

State healthcare facilities can be DSPs too but before they can be listed as such in the rules of your medical scheme, your scheme must make sure that you and its other beneficiaries can reach these facilities with reasonable ease and that the required treatment, medication, and care are both available and accessible.

A designated service provider or DSP is a healthcare provider (doctor, pharmacist, hospital etc.) who is appointed by your medical scheme to treat or care for prescribed minimum benefit (PMB) conditions of their members.

Page 47: 2019 - HOME | SAMWUMED

SAMWUMED | MEMBER GUIDE 2019 41

WHAT IS INVOLUNTARY USE OF A NON-DSP?

If circumstances force you to obtain a service from a non-DSP (i.e. involuntarily), and it’s a PMB condition, your scheme must pay for the costs of your treatment, diagnosis, and care in full. These are the reasons why you may need to obtain treatment from a non-DSP involuntarily:

• the required service or treatment is not readily available from your scheme’s DSP or it will be provided with unreasonable delay;

• an emergency occurs under circumstances or at a location that prevents you from obtaining PMB treatment from a DSP; or

• there is no DSP within reasonable proximity to your ordinary place of business or personal residence

HOW DOES TREATMENT AT DSPs WORK?

Your scheme can insist that you go to a DSP as soon as your PMB condition is diagnosed, in which case they cover the costs from the start. When your condition is identified as a PMB after diagnosis, your scheme must pay for the tests and treatment in full retrospectively. Treatment for a PMB condition at a DSP is covered in full by the medical scheme.

A co-payment is the amount of money or portion of the account that your scheme may request you to fund from your own pocket. This could be either a percentage of the fee or the difference between the tariff of your scheme’s chosen DSP and the amount charged by the provider (non-DSP) you went to. The co-payment amount must be specified in the scheme rules.

A medicine formulary is a list of medications that the scheme is willing to fund for the treatment of PMB conditions. Feel free to ask your scheme for the formulary list for your specific benefit option and discuss the available medicines with your doctor.

If you choose to use medicine not listed on the formulary, the scheme is allowed to charge you a co-payment. But there are specific circumstances where schemes cannot enforce a co-payment and must make provision for appropriate exceptions or substitutions, including where the formulary medicine has proven ineffective or would cause you harm or an adverse reaction.

The Regulations to the Medical Schemes Act provide for specific principles that medical schemes may use to manage the financial risk associated with PMBs.

These principles include designated service providers, managed care protocols and formularies.
