- Your claim is related to a DHA exclusion
-

A referral letter is required from your GP or specialist doctor with a detailed description of your presenting symptoms and medical history. For physiotherapy claims, insurers require a referral letter to ensure that the treatment is medically necessary.

The Network Tariff Rate (UCR) is a rate determined in advance by the insurer for each treatment type and used as a calculation basis for your claim reimbursement when you go out of your network of facilities.
15. I was not aware there is a time limit to submit claim documents. I have crossed the cut-off date, can I get special approval from the insurer?
Sorry to hear that. Unfortunately, insurers do not make exceptions. We strongly advise reading your insurer's claims guide to ensure timely claim submission.

Out of network means that the doctor or facility you went to does not have a contract with your health insurance company.
Within network means that your provider has negotiated a contracted rate with your health insurance company.
If you decide to go out of network for your treatment, the insurer will apply further deductions in terms of co-payment and UCR rates resulting in partial reimbursement only for your claim.
18. I am on an Enhanced Basic Plan (EBP), can I submit a claim for reimbursement?
For Basic Essential Plans (EBP), you will not be able to claim for reimbursement for treatments received outside of your network.
