PPN

PPN – Industry pioneers of Innovation and Exemplary Service Delivery to our Contracted Medical Aids and their Members for more than 30 years!

What sets PPN apart from our competitors:

PPN continues to find solutions to high-cost medical inflation making optical benefits attractive to members and cost effective to medical aids.

PPN has its own tariff and coding system, consisting of just 400 codes which remains the most effective coding system to control fraud in the industry.

PPN does not sell the right to our codes or dictate the mark up that wholesalers make on their product.

Our price points for basic clear lenses that form part and parcel of each benefit design are the most cost effective in the industry.

PPN`s approach has always been to place more emphasis on professional fee increases whilst reducing the mark up on materials – Spectacle frames and clear lenses.

PPN`s benefit design, has adopted the Minister of Health’s appeal, that all benefit options should have a Universal Design.

Not only does PPN have the most sophisticated fraud controls in the optical industry, but we continue to add innovative applications and technologies.

Eyepath has introduced cutting edge AI technology that allows for more accurate referrals between optometry and ophthalmology – is a unique tool to assist with the identification of 18 bio markers including Diabetes, Hypertension and AMD thereby allowing schemes to manage the health status of their members, reducing future costs arising from unmonitored or unidentified health outcomes.
