Jenius gap cover is the ideal protection against unbudgeted for expenses that medical aids do not cover.
Very often, medical aids only cover a portion of the rates the hospitals and specialists charge, consequently leaving a gap that the medical aid member needs to pay. That can also have a significantly great effect on your savings. Therefore, this is the reason why Medical gap cover is so important.
Medical aids and hospital plans have maximum limits or expect co-payments for specified procedures or treatments; this is where gap cover can help.
Shortfall insurance is the ideal addition to your existing medical aid plan; this is because it will provide you with peace of mind that any unexpected medical costs will be covered. This gap cover also provides some additional benefits.
