Notes on Scheme changes (Please see Medical Aid summary for more information - Annexure A): The additional Medical Schemes under PPN administration for 2016 are: GEMS – Administration only and at Gems tariff (Not PPN tariff) IMPORTANT NOTICE - GEMS : PPN has been awarded the administration contract of the GEMS Network for Optical Benefit Management as of

January 2016. Please contact the GEMS provider line 0860 436 777 and refer members to their normal GEMS call

centre 0860 00 4367 for all scheme related queries. (Follow the Interactive Voice Recordings).

The Gems Network, benefit design and tariff structure, remains separate to that of the PPN network The PPN benefit design and tariff structure remains separate to that of the Gems network. To avoid confusion : If you are a PPN provider but have not signed the GEMS network provider agreement, you will

not automatically have access to Gems members. You will have to request the Gems network agreement via

[email protected] or via the GEMS Provider call centre.

Sizwe – PPN network and PPN tariff Topmed Network Option (ex Carecross Topmed) – PPN network and PPN tariff Option Terminations: Medimed - Standard option only Bankmed - Plus option only Bankmed - Carecross Basic option only

C. LAB DISCOUNTS NEGOTIATED FOR PPN PROVIDERS Two laboratories, Essilor and Hoya, approached PPN and have offered the network 37.5% and 40% wholesale discount respectively. In addition they agreed to work with us by adjusting the basic clear lens pricing by only 2% as of January 2016. As a PPN practice you now automatically qualify for these discounts exclusively for any PPN lens order once you have signed a PPN addendum for the lab ordering process. When ordering, you will need to quote a PPN reference/order number. This reference/order number can only be obtained via Optimum when submitting your claim details for payment. PPN has to guarantee the laboratories immediate payment for these lenses and the practice needs to sign a PPN Addendum for the lab ordering process before we activate the Lab ordering system for your practice. Any abuse of this arrangement will cause the PPN to remove the provider from making use of the Lab ordering functionality on Optimum. You are under absolutely no obligation to use these laboratories and the lens ordering process. PPN has merely negotiated this opportunity for those members’ optometrists who would like to take advantage of this offer for ordering spectacles for PPN medical aid members. PPN has negotiated this pricing arrangement to ensure that all of its members can sustain profitability when dispensing at the PPN lens tariffs.

D. SECOND BENEFIT WARRANTY PPN has designed a second optical benefit for members who have lost, damage or broken their spectacles within their benefit cycle. PPN Providers who wish to participate need to sign a PPN second benefit warranty addendum and like the PPN lab ordering process, participation is completely voluntary. The medical aid member needs to contact the PPN call centre directly on 086 1103 529 to activate his/her benefit. Proof of broken, damaged or lost spectacles for may be required for approval. The Second benefit warranty is limited to : A PPN frame and one pair of standard clear lenses either single vision, bifocal or multifocal based on the last script of the member registered on the PPN system . No consultation is required as this warranty provides for replacement only. The member will have a co-payment of R150.00 on SV, R250 on BF and R350 on MF . The Second Benefit Warranty is only available on our Capitated contracts .The medical aids participating in the second benefit are therefore : Bankmed Traditional & Comprehensive, Bestmed, BPSA, Camaf, Hosmed, MBMed, Medimed, Medihelp, PG Group, Polmed, Remedi Standard, Thebemed Terms & Conditions:

• The medical aid member needs to apply to PPN for an authorisation number; • The replacement benefit is only available at a PPN provider where the initial claim originated or the

nearest PPN provider if the originating provider has not signed the addendum to facilitate the second benefit warranty;

• The dependent has used their current optical benefit for the current cycle and is not in benefit; • A consultation is not covered and only the current prescription that is registered with PPN will be

used for the replacement pair; • The spectacles MUST be ordered online via the PPN lab ordering process on the Optimum

system; • The cover includes a PPN frame and one pair of clear standard lenses to your last prescription and

a copayment at a PPN provider is applicable; • As applicable to the normal optical benefit, the member can choose an alternative frame and lens

enhancements which becomes a copayment between the provider and member; • The Second benefit warranty is only available once off and cannot be used simultaneously with

the normal optical benefit; • Proof of broken, damaged or lost/stolen spectacles can be requested

E. FUNDUS PHOTOGRAPHY

PPN has promoted the clinical significance of Fundus Photography to all medical aids. Transmed is the first medical aid to subscribe to this philosophy. The payment on code 20012 R 150 is subject to the photograph being uploaded on Optimum by a PPN provider and a PPN ophthalmologist confirming positive pathology for the benefit to be activated. The Fundus photograph needs to be made available on referral to an ophthalmologist.

F. CPD For Free PPN has worked this year on establishing relationships where we can add value to our optometrists in the form of providing accredited CPD articles and points. We will upload articles every quarter on the PPN website. All articles have been selected by our Wellness Manager and internal optometrist, Molebogang Lephatsoana, and approved by the HPCSA. We hope that our providers will find value in the information provided by these articles. Optometrists can register on the PPN website: www.ppn.co.za (Click on PROVIDER, Click on CPD) PPN Optometrists can download the articles, print and or read them online and then start the questionnaire. The system automatically reviews the answers and awards the marks accordingly. Certificates of competency will automatically be issued on the PPN website upon successful completion (+ 70% score required).

G. DIGITAL RECORD CARD - CONTROLLED BY PATIENT BIOMETRICS

PPN has developed a Digital record card that, with the consent of the medical aid member, via the members Biometric Finger Print, will give a PPN practice the ability to access the member's previous clinical information recorded on the PPN system:

• Script information - VA, IOP, VF • Screening information - BP, BG, Cholesterol • Lenses dispensed • Cataract information • Retinal degenerative disorders • Fundus photograph • Last Date of Service

No previous provider information will be displayed, but should the practice test the member and find that the information on the historical record card doesn’t correlate, then the practice should report the information to PPN via our call centre on 086 1103 529 or by submitting the information on Optimum Support and we will investigate and revert soonest. 2. SPLIT BILLING

Split billing is not permitted according to a ruling by the Health Professions Council and the Medical Schemes Act of 1998.

According to the above ruling medical service providers are not allowed to use split billing when charging for their services. What is split billing? Split billing occurs when the Provider submits more than one account for the same service. The reason why split billing is not allowed is that

• it is of paramount importance to be able to track the full healthcare services and associated costs provided to a member of a medical aid

• split billing makes it possible for providers to disguise the fact that they are dispensing alternative products or charging more than the recommended negotiated rates

We regard split billing as an act of fraud. Please note that should split billing be identified your contract with PPN will be instantly terminated in terms of breach.

3. PPN NETWORK As at the end of 2015, the PPN network membership stood at OVER 2600 practices. This represents 97% of all registered optometrists in South Africa. Membership of PPN is voluntary. There are no membership fees. 4. PPN FILTERS PPN is constantly improving the filters in our system to improve the clinical management of claims submitted to our network. As a result of these filters, your practice will be required to submit record cards, lab orders and motivations to facilitate formal approval where deemed necessary. PPN believes that these filters will ensure and maintain the required professional standards that we insist on within our network. 5. SETTLEMENT DISCOUNT AND OFFERING SETTLEMENT DISCOUNTS - DO NOT DEDUCT THE SETTLEMENTS PRIOR TO INVOICING

A. PPN 1 Tariff Medical Schemes : Frame & Lens Enhancement Benefit PPN will continue with the R150 settlement discount on the Frame & Lens Enhancement Benefit PPN will deduct R 150 off the frame/lens enhancement value designated per medical aid. Example

C. CASH PATIENTS

Members of PPN contracted medical aids who choose to pay cash must be invoiced using the associated PPN tariff. The pricing may not exceed the prescribed PPN tariff amounts. If a member is identified as a PPN contracted member after having been charged SAOA codes, then the claim will need to be reversed and the applicable PPN tariff invoiced. This might result in members receiving a refund from the practice. It is therefore crucial that all relevant medical aid data appears on the cash invoice to facilitate member refunds. It terms of Competition Law PPN providers are entitled to charge less than the PPN tariff amounts, but not more than. PPN has agreed with Medshield and Medihelp to charge PPN2 pricing for the following scheme option members as they do not have designated optical benefits. Medshield – Core Plus and Medihelp – Dimension Prime 1. We have done this in order to assist these members with their out of pocket costs. Members of these options need to pay cash, and PPN Optometrists need to make sure the correct PPN 2 tariff is used when raising the invoice. This will allow for correct tax certificate information when requested by members: 6. PPN FRAME REBATE – CONTROLLED ONLINE THROUGH OPTIMUM Whenever PPN deducts R 150 frame settlement on PPN 1 claims presented, PPN allocates either a R 50 rebate or a PPN Frame replacement to be utilized by the practice in the following way. The process is fully administered on the Optimum website interface: o PPN Frame dispensed

When a PPN frame has been dispensed on PPN 1 a R150 settlement applies and the frame is replaced no charge. PPN will supply the practice with a PPN frame.

o Frame of higher value than a PPN frame dispensed Every accepted transaction on our PPN 1 medical aids where a frame or extras have been

approved and R150 settlement discount has been deducted, PPN will reimburse the practice with R50 credit per claim at the end of each month.

o Credits can be used in the following way The practice may elect to receive the accumulated credit value in either cash, PPN/Stepper

frames or a combination of both. In the event that the practice doesn’t have access to the internet, PPN will only transact these re-imbursements/replacements based on written communication received by your practice. The reimbursement of money will be transacted at the end of the calendar quarter. Frame orders can be placed at multiple intervals, but only one shipment will be for free of courier charges; thereafter the practice will pay 1 credit per shipment to cover the courier. The practice should manage the PPN rebate offering process on Optimum.

7. PPN FRAMES

It is COMPULSORY that all PPN practices carry a minimum stock of 20 PPN frames. The PPN frames must be clearly displayed and identifiable by the members of our contracted schemes. What does the PPN Frame benefit entail? All PPN 1 contracted medical aids benefit structures include a PPN frame benefit at a PPN practice. Therefore, it is compulsory for all the PPN practices to carry a minimum stock of 20 PPN frames. These PPN frames must be clearly displayed so that they can be identifiable by the members of PPN’s contracted schemes. All the PPN practices are obliged to first offer the PPN frames to all the members of PPN 1 contracted medical aid schemes. What is the procedure for PPN frames? PPN frames cost R50-00 each excluding V.A.T. The amount charged is a once off payment and a refundable deposit, meaning that when the practice resigns PPN membership, PPN will refund the deposit on receipt of the remaining stock of PPN frames from the practice. Bank details: Yellow Zebra Optical, Standard Bank, Acc nr 080265146, Branch code 051001 Tariff codes: PPN practices must use tariff code 70406 to invoice PPN frames for replacement. PPN Frame Replacements: see point 6 PPN will replace the PPN frames where the tariff code 70406 was charged at the end of every month once the practice has sold a minimum of 5 frames. The practice will not be charged for the replacement of PPN frames after the initial refundable deposit providing they use the code 70406. Should the practice order frames directly from the supplier, they will be charged for additional stock. Please note that all PPN frames include a (two) 2 year guarantee. Ordering more stock: Go to www.optimum.co.za and view the PPN frame catalogue/availability if you are unsure of the models you would like to purchase under the PPN Rebate Offering section.

8. PPN READY MADE READERS

As of 1/1/2012 a Ready Made Reader benefit was written as part of the guaranteed benefit for the following medical aids: Bankmed, PG Group, MBMed The benefit value for readers will be R75 per pair of readers and the member will be entitled to 2 pairs within their benefit cycle. The benefit was designed to assist those members over the age of 40 who only require reading assistance and who prefer to wear Ready-Made Readers. As a PPN provider you should carry stock of PPN Ready-made Readers that will retail at R75. The practice does not have to stock the Yellow Zebra Optical range if they have readers available in their practice but please ensure that your practice can cater for Readymade Readers within the R75 price range. To ensure that you have access to a range of Ready-made Readers, PPN has arranged that you can source them directly from Yellow Zebra Optical (Please order from either Rochelle Canon or Romelda Page on 041-4094000 : The cost of the PPN readers is R40 excluding vat.) Medical aid members will be allowed to view the Ready-made Readers catalogue and/or view readers on the public PPN website. This benefit will be confirmed by the PPN call centre. The benefit for these options will be written as follows:

One Composite Consultation AND EITHER

Spectacles inclusive of Ready-Made Readers: Frame and Lens enhancements to the value of R"x" together with one pair of Aquity Clear lenses:

2 x Single Vision Lenses to the value of R150per lens; or 2 x Bifocal Lenses to the value of R325per lens; or 2 x Multifocal Lenses to the value of R600per lens

and/or Ready-Made Readers (inclusive in cost of lenses): 2 x Ready-Made Readers to the value of R75 per pair

OR Contact Lenses

Contact lenses to the value of R"x" Rules for Ready-Made Readers:

• Members can claim for 2 pairs of Ready-Made readers within their optical cycle. • The Readers benefit is an "either or" benefit which will result in a co-payment of R75 per ready-

made reader claim, where the member elects both spectacle lenses and readymade readers within their benefit cycle.

• Should the member claim for a Spectacle lens(es) and afterwards claim for Ready-Made readers then the member will have to co-pay for the Ready-Made Readers

• Should the member claim for Ready-Made readers and at a later stage want to claim for spectacle lenses then he will have to co-pay on the spectacle lenses

• Due to this benefit being written as part of the optical benefit and in the instance where the member elects both Spectacle lenses and Readers resulting in the readers being a co-payment, the provider can still claim for the code 70005 - Dispensing within the benefit, as long as there is no co payment on the frame/lens enhancements and/or branded lenses.

• The PPN Ready-made Readers Tariff code to be used is 61007 • Ready-Made Readers will only be available from registered PPN providers and no refund will

be given to members who buy readers from their pharmacy, clicks or other retail outlets.

REGIONAL SUPPORT COORDINATOR (RSC) Please do not hesitate to contact Petruschka Dekker on 083 454 2404 or via email [email protected] should you require any PPN training. 14. VALIDATE IT Fraudulent claiming is a problem for medical aids. The optical benefit has been abused by some members of medical aids in collusion with optometrists. PPN has been working on ways to reduce fraud, and introduced Validate IT in 2011.All claims for either bifocal or multifocal prescription lenses, that form part of a claim raised with PPN, must include the accredited laboratory used and the order number identified with the manufacture of the specific lenses claimed for. All laboratories can apply to become accredited. PPN will only have access to the claims information supplied on each PPN claim, which is information made known to PPN through the claim itself. Laboratories are subjected to a PPN audit to prove compliance. Claims that exclude Validate IT information will not be paid in line with agreements reached with the schemes that PPN administers. Medical aids have welcomed this step to eradicate fraud and expose those few optometrists who succumb to participating in fraudulent behavior.

15. MOTIVATION PROCEDURE PPN has dedicated Motivations coordinators. All motivations that fall outside of the clinical rule set, are forwarded to Pax Ramela for his professional opinion and adjudication. It is imperative that you provide PPN with all the necessary information required in order to facilitate and substantiate the motivation submitted. Please make note of the requirements listed on the Optical Motivations Sheet loaded on the Optimum Website under News Help & Training before submitting your motivation. To assist a smooth motivation process we have introduced pre-authorisation. If you would like to secure authorisation PRIOR to dispensing, PPN will undertake to give a ruling within 7 days and allocate a motivation number if approved. All you then need to do is quote this number and if appropriate, supply a copy of the lab order and lab invoice and the claim will be paid. PPN rule set:

1) No single vision Rx < 0.50 Diopter will be paid or considered for payment 2) No bifocal/varifocal adds for less than 1 Diopter will be paid or considered for payment. 3) No varifocals to children under age 18 years will be paid or considered for payment with the

exception of post cataract surgery. Bifocals to be considered for children under the age of 18 years on motivation only.

4) No contact lenses to children under age 16 years unless motivated. 5) Vertical prism > 1 Diopter should be motivated

Please complete the motivations sheet on News/Help & Training on Optimum and submit it directly to the motivation coordinators via fax on 086 6441 165 or email them on [email protected] who will co ordinate with the optometrist reviewing the motivation. NB - Stale Motivation period: As mentioned under point 12 of this document, the stale date period for submissions of motivation is in total 4 months from date of service (see stale claim period under point 12). The stale claim period also applies if additional information is required by the PPN Committee and the motivation will be deemed stale after a 2 months period from the date of the request. Although PPN would follow up with Providers to request additional information that might be needed, it is still the responsibility of the provider to send all documents that would be required within the specified periods. 16. VAT REGISTRATION DETAILS

In November 2014, PPN requested confirmation of VAT registration from all our providers. PPN would like to thank those providers that have either confirmed they are VAT registered through submission of their VAT certificates or have indicated they are not VAT registered. You are able to update your VAT information as well as upload a copy of your VAT certificate via the practice portal on Optimum. Please log onto Optimum to provide or update your details or, should you not have access to Optimum, email your VAT status along with all supporting documentation to [email protected] so that we can verify and update accordingly.

17. RATE A PPN PRACTICE (IN PLACE SINCE 2014) A member can only rate your practice if they had either an eye test or materials dispensed i.e. a claim on the system, will we allow them to rate your practice. This will result in an overall star rating for your practice. The star rating will appear on the public website inclusive of comments made by the member. These comments will be displayed to new potential members looking for a practice where they can have their eyes tested. We will automatically email/fax your practice the moment a member rates your practice and provide you with a report based on their rating. Members can only rate your practice ONCE per transaction on the system and they CANNOT change the rating once they have submitted their final comment. The feedback will provide your practice with service information and feedback from a PPN member's perspective on how they experienced the service delivery in your store. PPN will automatically publish all 4 and 5 star ratings. We will however first obtain feedback for all 3 to 1 star ratings prior to publishing these details on our public website. We will follow the following process:

a. The PPN service team will contact the member to find out why they rated your practice with 3 or less stars (focusing on the questions rated 3 stars and less)

b. We will contact you to obtain more information on what you discussed with the member c. Confirm if the rating is a true reflection of the services received in store d. Should we find that a member rated your practice to harshly, we will after reviewing the feedback

from the member/practice and obtaining approval from the member, change their original rating and publish the new rating.

e. If the member would like to keep their rating, we will inform your practice at which stage you can interact with the member, but if the member is determined that this is the rating they would give your practice we will have to publish the rating given by the member.

The final rating is based on the following initial questions:

19. BIOMETRICS PPN developed Biometrics in 2013. The official roll out began in 2014 with free installation. The free installation will continue through to the end of March 2016. Thereafter, any existing PPN network provider requiring installation will be charged an installation fee. There will be no installation fee for new PPN network members. PPN has developed access to a Biometric fingerprint controlled record card. Members of contracted medical aids will be able to give their exclusive consent to access their personal clinical information for the practice at which they have made an appointment. No previous provider information will be displayed, but should the practice test the member and find that the information on the historical record card is incorrect, then you can report the information to PPN via our call centre on 086 1103 529 or by submitting the information on Optimum Support and we will investigate and revert soonest. Biometric Devices: We only roll out to providers who have signed the Biometric agreement - if you have not done so, please contact our membership department, Brit Plaatjies on [email protected] or 041 506 5938, to obtain the agreement and device.
