Medical aid Procedure Codes
The Department of Health earlier this year issued Procedure Codes for treatments and consultations of Chinese medicine and acupuncture.

You yourself need to submit your paid invoice together with your claim to your medical aid provider in order to claim towards what you have paid. If you wish to claim for treatments and consultations please let Reception know when you collect your invoice at the end of your clinic visit.
The cost of the herbal medicines themselves is not covered by medical aid.
