Billing Policy

FEE STRUCTURE:

Anaesthetic accounts are prepared per clinical unit, where a clinical unit reflects a certain level of required expertise. Therefore, each account consists of a number of anaesthetic and clinical units. A specific rand value is ascribed to each unit which is then added up to represent the total amount due.

All procedures will be billed at the following price per unit:

We follow the policy of “one standard tariff for one standard of professional service”, which is in line with the legal requirements in the Consumer Protection Act (CPA).
This standard tariff is charged to ALL patients irrespective of age, economic circumstances or funder involved. It remains the prerogative of this practice to grant a discount.

ACCOUNT ADMINISTRATION:

We deliver a free service regarding account administration, by submitting accounts to the medical aid on behalf of our patients.
This submission of the account does not constitute transfer of the liability for payment onto the medical aid or our practice.

PLEASE NOTE:

THE PATIENT AND OR GUARANTOR REMAINS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE PAYMENT OF THE FULL ACCOUNT, IRRESPECTIVE OF FUNDER(S) INVOLVED.
The FULL account is payable strictly before or on 30 (thirty) days after service delivery. Accounts older than 60(sixty) days, will attract interest and handed over to a debt collector and attorney.
