Circular 68 of 2021: Call for Comments on Benefit Definition Guideline for Prescribed Minimum Benefit level of care for Medical Nutrition Therapy
The Council for Medical Schemes (CMS) has published the PMB definition guideline: Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT) for PMB conditions (adults and paediatrics) Version 1 and calls for stakeholders’ comments on the PMB benefit definition guideline.
There is often a lack of clarity about scheme members and beneficiary entitlements in managing some conditions under the current PMB Regulations that require prospective clarification. The benefit definition process seeks to provide transparency to stakeholders in this regard.
Submissions on the benefits definition guideline for PMB definition guideline: Medical Nutrition Therapy for PMB conditions (adults and paediatrics) should be sent to pmbprojects@medicalschemes.co.za.
