For the most part, these illnesses are mild, and while they may be distressing, do not cause lasting harm \u2013 either physically or financially. But the reality is that not all childhood illnesses are as innocuous. A diagnosis like cancer, a congenital condition or even an unfortunate accident, could result in ongoing hospital treatment, and as a result, significant medical bills. When it comes to taking care of children, the last thing any parent needs is to worry about whether or not they can afford the right medical care. Gap cover has become a critical insurance policy to ease some of the burden in the event that the unthinkable happens.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The big C<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Childhood cancers like leukaemia, lymphoma, neuroblastoma and soft tissue sarcoma are generally caused by environmental and genetic factors. They are not the result of lifestyle choices, and as such there is nothing that can be done to prevent them. According to the Cancer Association of South Africa (CANSA 2021), between 800 and 1000 children in the country are newly diagnosed with cancer every year. A disturbing two-thirds of these children never reach a specialist treatment centre. Cancer requires ongoing treatment over a period of months or even years, which can become a heavy financial burden.<\/p>\n<p>Aside from cancer, which may develop at any time during childhood, many children are born with certain medical issues. These are called congenital defects, and again may require extensive medical treatment. Some examples are club foot, which generally requires surgical intervention, and cleft palate, which may require multiple surgeries as well as physical and speech therapy. Some children may be born with heart defects, which again require surgery to correct. There are also a range of genetic conditions that may affect children, the most well-known of which is Trisomy 21, also known as Downs Syndrome.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The financial burden<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>When a dread diagnosis is made, no parent needs the added stress of wondering how they are going to fund the expensive treatments their child requires. In addition to the medical expenses, severe childhood illnesses that result in ongoing treatment and lengthy hospital stays mean that parents need to take time off work. Hospitals require that an adult be present with a child during their hospital stay, but how does a parent continue to earn an income during this time?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Accidents happen<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Quite apart from illness and congenital problems, accidents also happen, from broken bones and cuts that need stitching, to unfortunate events that result in more severe damage. The severity of an accident obviously affects the length of a hospital stay and the treatment required, but the upshot is similar to a critical illness. Parents are left with a financial burden of medical expenses, as well as potentially the need to take time off work to be with their child in hospital and to help them recover.<\/p>\n<p><strong>No room for gaps<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Parents want to be able to give their children the best treatment they can, and the thought of not being able to afford this can be devastating. Gap cover offers an ideal solution to help ease this burden.<\/p>\n<p>Choosing the right gap cover policy can help parents to ensure that they are covered for a range of medical expense shortfalls, from surgical to anaesthetists, specialists and more. Gap cover also helps to cover the penalties associated with making use of a non-designated service provider (DSP) hospital or doctor, and the co-payments that are often linked to specific types of diagnostics and treatments. Gap cover policies may also offer a counselling benefit to make sure that parents are able to look after their mental wellbeing and that of their children. The policies also offer a casualty benefit to cover those unforeseen visits to the emergency room after hours or on weekends and holidays.<\/p>\n<p>While no insurance can possibly lessen the blow of receiving a dread diagnosis for a child, it plays an important role in covering additional costs and protecting the financial wellbeing of a family. It is one way to reduce the stress and ease the pressure, so that parents can focus on what matters \u2013 getting their child the help they need.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Consult your financial advisor<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It is always advisable to consult your financial advisor to ensure that you have the right \u201cfit\u201d of a Gap policy to align with your Medical Aid and to provide the level of cover you and your family require.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/moneymarketing.co.za\/choosing-the-right-gap-cover-for-childhood-illnesses\/\">https:\/\/moneymarketing.co.za\/choosing-the-right-gap-cover-for-childhood-illnesses\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is Gap Cover?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone  wp-image-5136\" src=\"https:\/\/turnberry.co.za\/2027\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/212339-Turnberry-graphics-August_what-is-gap-cover.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"474\" height=\"474\" srcset=\"https:\/\/turnberry.co.za\/2027\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/212339-Turnberry-graphics-August_what-is-gap-cover-66x66.jpg 66w, https:\/\/turnberry.co.za\/2027\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/212339-Turnberry-graphics-August_what-is-gap-cover-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/turnberry.co.za\/2027\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/212339-Turnberry-graphics-August_what-is-gap-cover-200x200.jpg 200w, https:\/\/turnberry.co.za\/2027\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/212339-Turnberry-graphics-August_what-is-gap-cover-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/turnberry.co.za\/2027\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/212339-Turnberry-graphics-August_what-is-gap-cover-400x400.jpg 400w, https:\/\/turnberry.co.za\/2027\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/212339-Turnberry-graphics-August_what-is-gap-cover-600x600.jpg 600w, https:\/\/turnberry.co.za\/2027\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/212339-Turnberry-graphics-August_what-is-gap-cover.jpg 628w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 474px) 100vw, 474px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/getcovered.turnberry.co.za\/app\/1\">https:\/\/getcovered.turnberry.co.za\/app\/1<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Client Testimonials<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Young parents Monique and Hein were distraught when their newborn daughter was diagnosed with hyperostosis of the skull, a rare condition which causes thickening of the skull.\u00a0 \u00a0This required extremely complex surgery, under the care of a neurosurgeon and an ENI surgeon, which attracted a shortfall of R110\u00a0448.13.\u00a0\u00a0 As Turnberry members, this amount was covered by Turnberry, and Monique and Hein were able to focus on their new baby, with the peace of mind that they wouldn\u2019t have to worry about any medical expense shortfalls.<\/p>\n<p>I was so happy that I decided to take out gap cover with Turnberry, as my son required much needed surgery. He was able to receive top quality medical attention, the cost of which was covered by medical aid and supplemented by Turnberry Gap Cover. The team was very efficient and the claim was processed promptly. I was very happy with the process.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Turnberry was efficient, covered the shortfall of my daughter\u2019s operation 100%. The payment was prompt and hassle-free, and I recommend the product to everybody, it\u2019s a no-brainer.

My grandson who is on my medical aid and also covered with Gap Cover by Turnberry has received excellent support throughout the process for his addition to our cover, plus the build up to the operation and procedures that he has just gone through. Constant feedback from Turnberry throughout the claim process was handled very well.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Gap Cover is a necessary part of your medical cover \u2013 a Medical Aid is not sufficient to cover all aspects of medical care throughout one\u2019s life and its imperative that Gap Cover forms part of the consideration.
