Prescribed Minimum Benefits in M87. A medical scheme must fund the diagnosis, treatment and care of a PMB condition in full, within its rules on designated providers and treatment protocols. The PMB code and treatment component beside each code come from the Council for Medical Schemes’ PMB Coded List; the scheme decides whether a given claim qualifies.
