BHF to take fight about low-cost cover to SCA
Manage episode 492363407 series 2579897
The Board of Healthcare Funders (BHF) will petition the Supreme Court of Appeal directly after the high court in Pretoria dismissed its application to appeal against its ruling on low-cost benefit options (LCBOs). The BHF is an industry association for medical schemes and administrators, and has turned to the courts to try to compel the Council for Medical Schemes (CMS) to allow schemes to offer LCBOs. These are cheap, pared-down medical scheme options that provide less cover than the prescribed minimum benefits required by the Medical Schemes Act. Bongi Gwala is in conversation with Health Funders Association Chief Executive Officer, Thoneshan Naidoo and Managing Director of the Board of Healthcare Funders (BHF, Dr Katlego Mothudi.
