Braune, the managing director of Walvis Bay Medipark. |
Welwitschia Hospital is owned by Walvis Bay Medipark, the
owners of Ongwediva Medipark.
Under the agreement motor accident victims will receive
treatment at the private hospital without the need to fill in forms. This is
expected to speed up treatment process to patients. MVA Fund would in return
bear all the costs as stipulated by the fund's legislation.
Welwitschia Hospital will
invoice the MVA Fund monthly for payments and according to the Namibia Medical
Aid Fund tariffs. The MVA Fund will first verify the invoicing and that the
patients are indeed eligible to benefit from its funds. The agreement is for
the period of 12 months after which it will be reviewed.
