Even if your employees are part of your group medical aid scheme, they may not be totally covered financially should they or one of their dependants need to go to hospital. Gap cover has been specifically designed to fill the shortfall between medical aid rates and what healthcare professionals charge for in-hospital and certain out-of-hospital treatments. At Cornerstone, we’ll help you select a gap cover policy that’s right for your group medical aid scheme and your budget – and we’ll help you administer it for your employees too.
Why should you choose Cornerstone for your gap cover as part of your group scheme?
Employee morale:
Your employees knowing they have gap cover in place gives them peace of mind that they don’t need to worry about medical costs that their standard group policy may not cover – which can boost employee morale and loyalty.
Flexibility:
Gap cover policies can be tailored to meet individual employee needs: we’ll help you choose the level of gap cover each employee needs based on their age, health status and budget, so they’re financially protected no matter what life stage you’re in.
Access to more specialists:
With gap cover in place, your employees have greater freedom to choose top medical specialists. This means they and their families can get the treatment they need without needing to compromise due to financial concerns.
If you’re providing group medical cover to your employees, gap cover makes sense to add on. If you need help selecting or administering a gap cover policy as part of your group benefits, we can help.
