Good day

Please note that all activity on your medical scheme profile will always be reflected on your claims statement. This is done to keep you informed of any claims that have been submitted and will allow you to pick up on anything that may be incorrect.

The theatre fees was subject to a non-PMB day case with a limit of R15 034 per beneficiary per annum which was unfortunately exceeded because of previous claims.

We trust this response clarifies why the account could not be settled in full.

Kind regards
