Members of the Teachers’ Medical Scheme can access any of AON Minet service providers on the Company’s online panel countrywide. This list is accessible by dialling *340# from your Safaricom/Airtel line. Follow the on screen prompts to access the service you desire.
Instances where a member may require referral/specialist services include:
1. Where the service sought cannot be accessed directly such as an x-ray, MRI, chemotherapy or specialised services such as gynae care, oncology, etc.
In this instance the member will visit a primary healthcare service provider who will issue a referral letter to the member allowing them to seek the service at a referral service provider within AON Minet’s panel.
2. Where the service provider is not contracted to give a particular service.
In this instance, the service provider will issue a referral letter to the member indicating the service they seek and the name of the service provider they are referring the member to.
