** A formulary is a list of medicines covered on your option, from which a doctor can prescribe the appropriate medication for your chronic condition.
** If your treating doctor prescribes medicine that is not on the formulary and the medicine is clinically appropriate, then you would need to pay a 30% co-payment.

How to register for chronic medication :
** Ask your Primary Care doctor to phone us on 0860 11 78 59. Should your doctor fill out the Ingwe Chronic application form, this can be faxed or emailed to us.

** The chronic benefit consultant will either approve or decline the benefit telephonically.
** We may need additional information from your doctor, such as the correct ICD 10 code (diagnosis code) and applicable test results, in order to complete the registration process for your condition or medicine.

** Once your chronic registration has been approved, you need to send your prescription to Medipost to arrange for your chronic medication to be delivered to you.
** You can contact Medipost on 012 426 4000, email at mhealth AT medipost.co.za or fax on 0866 82 33 17.

Important Notes :
** You need to register on the chronic management programme and get approval for chronic medication to be paid from the Chronic Benefit.

** Please refer to the list of chronic conditions in your member brochure for more information on the conditions covered on your option.
