These general conditions clear up the doubts of special interest to the majority of Insured people. We offer a short preview of those that we consider most enlightening and useful to understand the rights and mutual obligations. What are the General Conditions? This is the text that sets forth all the obligations and rights of the Insured and of the Insurer. When may I request a home service? There are three cases: 1. Emergencies ( see: "Emergency Home Services "). 2. Patients who are unable to travel ( see "Home Services "). 3. Patients requiring special care but not hospitalisation ( see "Special Home Care "). What happens if there is no-one in my province who can perform a magnetic resonance on me? Sanitas will provide you with this service in province of your choice where it is available.

Request the services at the offices of the Entity with which Sanitas has an agreement and which are listed in your Guidebook to Doctors and Services. What have I got to do for the paediatrician to make a home visit? To send for the doctor, you have to telephone him between 9 am and 4pm, in cases when it is not possible - due to disease - to attend his surgery. Where do I go to request a referral to a specialist? In general, there is open access to specialists. It is not necessary for you to go first to your family doctor or to our offices (except for consultants). Does the policy cover family planning? Yes, you may choose from: * Oral contraceptives * IUD placement * Tubal ligature (or vasectomy) * Infertility and sterility study and diagnosis What is being referred to when "outpatient" services are mentioned? These are services when the patient does not need to be hospitalised, and are undertaken at centres arranged by the Insurer, which the Insured attends by his/her own means.

No. An individual room with an accompanying person's bed is included in the policy cover (except in cases of ICU, incubator and psychiatric hospitalisation) If I go skiing and break my leg - does Sanitas cover me? It does, provided that it is not a competitive event. In addition, if it is abroad, it is also covered under the terms of the complementary foreign assistance guarantee.
