5. Benefits
Resolution Health provides a range of benefits to suit both your lifestyle and budget and which are competitive with similar products within the market. Members may change benefit options subject to the following: Changes may only be made annually effective 1 January A written application to change your benefit option must reach the Principal Officer by no later than 31 December for the next year All options cover the Prescribed Minimum Benefits (PMBs), subject to Scheme Protocols. Members and their dependants are entitled to the benefits of their option during a financial year as per the Benefit Schedule listed in this handbook. Once depleted, any additional interventions that qualify as PMB will be funded according to Scheme protocols. Pre-authorisation and proof of PMB status is required for automated payment. Members should check the different option benefits, the list of approved chronic conditions (section 5.8, page 12) and exclusions (section 5.12, page 13), to ensure they select the most appropriate option to get the best possible benefits from their cover for the year. When joining the Scheme during the year, all benefits except hospitalisation and other risk benefits, that have Rand limits will be pro-rated in proportion to the period of membership. This will be calculated from the date of admission to the Scheme to the end of the year.
Please include the following essential details: Membership number. Name of the Option. Members surname and details. Surname, initials and other details of the patient. The practice number, group practice number and individual provider registration number of the service provider; and in case of a group practice, the practice number of the practitioner who provided the service. Date when the service was rendered. The nature and cost of services rendered, including the supply of medicine to the member or registered dependant, with the name, quantity and dosage of the medicine - include the net amount payable by the member for the prescribed medicine. The relevant diagnostic (ICD-10) code, relating to the service. If the ICD-10 code does not appear on the account it should be obtained from the service provider prior to submission. If the member has already paid the account, the original receipt must be submitted with the claim. Claims must reach us by no later than the last day of the fourth month, following the month in which the service was rendered. Accounts for treatment of injuries or expenses recovered from third parties, must be supported by a statement detailing the circumstances in which the injury was sustained or the accident occurred. Claims payments to service providers and members take place twice a month. The Scheme will supply the member with a detailed claims statement after every payment run. Should there be any irregularities on the account, the Scheme will state the reason for the error or why it is unacceptable. The member or service provider then has the opportunity to return the corrected claim within 60 days of such notice. Note: Certain service providers charge fees above those which are covered as listed in the membership guide. The Scheme will only pay providers at the rate depicted in the Benefit Schedule, usually the Scheme Rate, unless otherwise specified. The Benefit Schedule also identifies limits and sub-limits for certain services and products. To avoid members being held liable for any shortfall, it is essential they determine what providers charge upfront prior to any services being delivered. The Scheme may also exclude certain services from benefits, as set out in Exclusions (section 5.12, page 13).
11
Anxious Patients Hospitalisation and general anaesthesia is not covered where patients require anxiety control only. Many people are anxious about dental treatment and mild sedation is sometimes required. Benefits are payable for sedation methods such as laughing gas or sedative medications. No pre-authorisation is required for laughing gas or sedative medications. Conscious sedation (iv sedation) for surgical procedures require pre-authorisation and are subject to Scheme Protocols. General anaesthesia and hospitalisation Hospitalisation for dentistry is not automatically covered and is subject to pre-authorisation. Hospitalisation for the removal of impacted teeth in adults is available on all options. General anaesthetic benefits are available for very young children (younger than 5 years of age) for extensive dental treatment (multiple extractions and fillings), subject to admission protocols. Hospitalisation protocols: Where an underlying medical condition creates a substantially increased risk of treatment in the dentists rooms and justifies admission, an authorisation may be granted. A medical report from a medical practitioner confirming the medical condition will be required. Multiple hospital admissions are not covered. An x-ray or clinical report may be requested to process a hospital pre-authorisation. Hospitalisation for impacted teeth will only be authorised for pathology or severe pain based on Scheme Protocols and evidence. Soft tissue impactions will not be covered. Hospitalisation is not covered where anxiety of dental treatment is the reason for the admission.
Preferred providers are contracted to charge and deliver services according to the Scheme specific rates and it is therefore advisable to use preferred providers to facilitate ease of access and ensure no co-payments. Co-payments may be applicable if members choose to use a non-preferred provider or enhancements which fall outside the option specific entitlements. The Scheme benefits and protocols as well as the list of the preferred providers and optical rates are available on our website on www.resomed.co.za. Please familiarise yourself with the defined benefit before visiting your optometrist.
