acknowledgement of guilt

<p>so medshield has been puting out fires on our membeship this past year. it has thus been a great experience to recieve such fast tracked query solving however regarding my orthodontic treatment quote i have made it very clear that the scheme mediplus brochure 2017 does not metion age under specialised detistry. i am repeating this because i want the scheme to admit and acknowledge that this is or is not true maybe i have read that specific detail rong regarding the age of 18 on the brochure just like other schemes has indicated. </p>

Good day

Kindly note, as per the brochure, Orthodontic treatment is Subject to pre-authorisation and the Specialised Dentistry Limit.

Specialised Dentistry Limit is subject to pre-authorisation by the relevant Managed Healthcare Programme. Failure to obtain an authorisation prior to treatment will result in a 20% penalty. This benefit is also subject to the Dental Managed Healthcare Programme and Protocols.

It should be noted, upon pre-authorisation request, the member / caller is advised of the Dental Programme and it’s Protocols.

We trust you find the above in order.

Yours sincerely,

Medshield
