Day-to-day benefits
The Dynamix Efficiency
Discounted (ED) option
The Dynamix ED Option is an attractive new generation plan
that offers private hospital cover, at a Netcare facility a
savings account and traditional risk benefits with above
threshold benefits for day-to-day healthcare expenses.
Chronic medicine should be obtained from Dischem (DSP).
Step 1Day-to-day healthcare claims are initially paid from the annual Medical Savings Account (MSA). The annual MSA funds are advanced to members at the beginning of the year. If you resign from the medical Scheme during the year, you may be liable for a pro-rata usage portion of the MSA advance.
Step 2Once the annual MSA is depleted, day-to-day healthcare claims are paid from the AFB. The AFB is a risk benefit, meaning that the “Scheme” pays for it.
Step 3When the MSA and AFB is depleted, you are responsible for the payment to your claim (SPG). The SPG can be seen as an excess before the medical pays your claims.
Whilst in your SPG, you still submit these claims to CompCare Wellness for processing. This is a very important step in the claiming process as these claims accumulate to the Threshold level.
Step 4Once you reach the TL, you have access to above threshold benefits (ATB).
Step 5In the AT you have additional day-to-day benefits with certain sub-limits. These benefits include specialists, medication (chronic and acute), radiology and pathology.
See contribution table for values of MSA, AFB, SPG and TL.
Understanding your day-to-day benefits in 5 easy steps
