This practice is contracted in to the recommended medical aid scale of benefits.
Medical Aid: We do claim directly from medical aids if desired. In this case, I charge their standard rate, according to the number of hours taken. Please check with your medical aid if you have benefits.
Prescribed Minimum Benefits (PMB) application: We do submit forms to medical aids to apply for PMB services (extra free psychotherapy sessions in lieu of a clinic stay). This applies for certain psychological conditions (depression, bipolar), even if the client only has a hospital plan.
Cash: Payment can be made by EFT or PayPal.
It remains the patient’s responsibility to ensure that their medical aid pays the claim.
