Chronic Care Programme

The registration process z6assists the general practitioner and the patient so that the patient receives optimal care, effectively with minimum administration. The chronic care benefit covers all 27 CDL conditions provided the member is registered on the chronic programme by the treating GP. Medication is covered as per the formulary. HIV/AIDS is also included in the 27 CDL conditions and members can enjoy full cover once registered by their general practitioner on the chronic programme.

What medicines and Laboratory tests will be used?
Makoti has carefully chosen quality medicines. These medicines have been chosen to treat and prevent diseases. They need to be used in the correct manner and according to the correct dosage to regain or maintain health. It is very important to use medicines in the correct dosages, because if they are used incorrectly, they can cause a great deal of harm or even death. The majority of these medications are proven quality generics. If a patient insists on a more costly alternative the additional cost will be for the member to pay directly to the pharmacy. Medication commonly requested that is not on the formulary include: Vitamins, laxatives, proton pump inhibitors and over the counter medicines. Clinically appropriate Laboratory tests are accessed subject to protocol and after pre-authorisation only.
