Hollard Gap Cover

Extra protection. Fewer surprises. More peace of mind

What is gap cover?

If you’ve ever wondered what gap cover is, here is the simple answer: You receive a bill from the doctor after a hospital procedure. Your medical aid pays most of the cost, but there is still a portion they don’t cover. That remaining amount is called the “gap.” Normally, you would have to pay that amount out of your own pocket. If you have Gap Cover, the policy steps in and pays that remaining amount (or part of it) so that you are not left with the unexpected bill.

Hollard Gap Cover is not a medical aid and it is not a substitute for medical aid membership.
 

Who is gap cover for?

This gap cover offering is ideal for:

  • Anyone who is an active member of a registered Namibian medical aid
  • Individuals or families seeking extra protection against unexpected medical bills
  • People who value financial certainty during medical events
     

About Hollard Gap Cover

This is gap cover in Namibia, built around the fact that medical aids sometimes only cover a portion of costs and shortfalls can happen. With the right option, you can feel more prepared when life throws these curveballs at you.
