PRESCRIBED MINIMUM BENEFITS (PMBs)


WHAT ARE PMBs?
In terms of the Medical Schemes Act, Act 131 of 1998, medical schemes must provide minimum hospital-based benefits for certain conditions. These hospital benefits are available even during a waiting and/or exclusion period. These prescribed minimum benefits cover members for specific treatments and services, available in a State hospital. A list of the conditions covered in-hospital is available on the website of the Council for Medical Schemes, at www.medicalschemes.com. PMBs are defined by the Medical Schemes Act with the aim of ensuring that all medical scheme members have access to certain minimum health benefits, regardless of the Scheme benefit option they have selected, their age or the state of their health. In terms of the Act, medical schemes have to cover the costs related to the diagnosis, treatment and care of: - all emergency medical conditions; and - a limited set of approximately 270 medical conditions as defined in the Diagnosis Treatment Pairs, which includes 25 chronic conditions as defined in the Chronic Disease List. The treating Doctor decides whether a condition is a PMB or not by taking into account the symptoms only a diagnosis-based approach.

Conditions that are covered

In Annexure A of the Regulations to the Medical Schemes Act, the complete list of PMBs is provided in the form of Diagnosis and Treatment Pairs. The approximately 270 conditions qualifying for PMB cover are diagnosis-specific and include a large number of diverse conditions, broadly divided into 15 categories. The Scheme makes use of formularies for chronic medication to manage costs and ensure accessibility to appropriate care for all Members. A formulary is an approved list of medication applicable to the chronic conditions covered by the Scheme. These formularies do not in any way compromise the quality of healthcare that a Member will receive.

DSPs for PMBs

Any services falling within the prescribed minimum benefits rendered by the Schemes DSPs will be covered in full. The Scheme has appointed the following DSPs: - The National Hospital Network (NHN); - The State (Gauteng, Free State and Western Cape) as the DSP for any major medical services which fall within PMBs. In the absence of any formal agreement, any other hospital will be regarded as a DSP . - CareCross Specialist Network Subject to application and approval, the Scheme will pay 100% of MST in respect of any services for prescribed minimum benefits which are voluntarily obtained by a Beneficiary from a service provider, other than the DSP . Subject to application and approval, any services in respect of PMBs, which are involuntarily obtained by the Beneficiary from a service provider other than the DSP will be covered in full. ,

Membership number; 2. Full name of the patient being hospitalised; 3. Name and practice number of the hospital to which the patient will be admitted; 4. Reason for the hospital admission or the planned diagnostic procedure(s) and the relevant ICD-10 or CPT4 code(s); 5.

Particulars of the Doctor or service provider (practice number, initials, surname and telephone number). Always ask your Doctor for full details of: The reason for admission; The associated medical diagnosis; and The prospective procedure(s) as well as the procedure code(s) to be used. Once the above-mentioned information has been processed, the Beneficiary will be provided with an authorisation number. If no authorisation number is obtained, no benefits will be payable. Please note that a Beneficiary needs to obtain authorisation within 24 hours prior to an admission, or within two (2) working days after an emergency admission (a family member, friend or the hospital can call on the Beneficiarys behalf if he/she is unable to do so), otherwise no benefits will be paid. entries on their claims statements to ensure that the services were indeed rendered. By doing this, Members will notice any inaccurate claims against their benefits. If there appears to be a problem, Members must contact the service provider and enquire about the claims submitted on their behalf. If any services charged for were not rendered, alert the Scheme. In this way, Members will help ensure that the Scheme pays only for the services received. If the Scheme has a members e-mail address on its system, an electronic notification will be sent each time a claim is processed. This will further help Members to manage their medical expenses.

USE THE E-MAIL FACILITY


Webmail is a simple e-mail-based interface for Members to gain access to their Medical Scheme information without having to phone the Client Service Centre. A Member can activate webmail by e-mailing the Scheme at webmail@keyhealthmedical.co.za. No details are required in the subject field or the body of the mail. The e-mail address of the Member will be authenticated against the e-mail address loaded on the system. If an e-mail address has not been loaded onto the system, or if there is more than one Member using the same e-mail address, the Member will receive a response informing him/her that KeyHealth is unable to authenticate the e-mail address and is therefore unable to generate the webmail. Once an e-mail address has been authenticated, the system will respond by e-mailing the Member a complete package of information. This package includes: Membership details Case history Claims history Benefits Contributions Claims advice

REGISTER CHRONIC ILLNESS CONDITIONS


Authorisation for chronic medication is subject to the following: The treating Doctor or the Pharmacist must register chronic conditions with MediKredit on 0800 132 345 as detailed clinical information, including the conditions ICD-10 code and severity status, is required. The Doctor will then issue a prescription to obtain the medication from a local pharmacy, a Scheme DSP pharmacy or the Doctors dispensary. Certain products will only be authorised if prescribed by an appropriate Specialist. These Specialists must contact MediKredit on 0800 132 345 for further information.

USE THE SMS FACILITY


Members may gain access to useful information 24 hours a day by sending an SMS to 32899. The options are as follows: Send an SMS with the letter B in the message field to receive an SMS with current benefits available. Send an SMS with the letter C in the message field to receive an e-mail with claims, as per last statement. Send an SMS with the letter D in the message field to receive an SMS with membership details. Send an SMS with the letters IC and the relevant ICD-10 code in the message field to receive an SMS with the ICD10 code description details. Members should receive a reply within minutes, provided that their cell number/e-mail address is up to date on the system.
