Please also subscribe to our mailing list to keep abreast of the newest developments. Can I claim from medical aid/insurance? Century Medica is a registered healthcare provider and all the services are on a self-pay basis. While we do not work with any medical aid at this moment in direct payment, receipts from Century Medica are valid healthcare receipts. Please check with your medical aid/insurance regarding reimbursement.  Can you prescribe antibiotics? Antibiotic use is regulated as overuse can contribute to resistance of bacteria in the person who has consumed the antibiotic inappropriately. Antibiotic resistance is a serious problem as there will be very few treatment options that can be used to treat infection in that particular individual. At Century Medica, all our doctors are professionally trained in the appropriate use of antibiotics, which is why we will not put you at risk by prescribing antibiotics to you without having the opportunity of a clinical examination. Should our doctors feel that antibiotic is warranted in your case, we can prescribe or will refer you to appropriate providers if you require further physical workup. What kind of medication can you not prescribe? 1. Any medicines classed as controlled or restricted drugs/substances under the MEDICINES AND RELATED SUBSTANCES ACT 101 OF 1965 and all its’ amendments; 2. Unlicensed medications; 3. Sedatives or sleeping tablets; 4. Strong analgesics; 5. Medications that need to be initiated by a hospital specialist. We are, however, able to refer you to see a relevant specialist with a medical referral (we charge for referral letters, see our Costs).  What if my consultation lasts longer than 10 minutes? In our experience, 10 minutes is quite sufficient for most people. Should you require a longer chat, no problem, let us know towards the end of your session to book a follow up session. Booking instructions and payment will be emailed to you for confirmation and we will call you back at the earliest available opportunity. Unfortunately in-session extensions will not be possible as the appointments are pre-booked and there may be another person waiting to chat with the doctor. Your doctor may, at his/her sole discretion, decide to extend your session when conditions permit as a courtesy. Can you send my medication to me? No. At this moment, we do not offer this service. Be sure to subscribe to our mailing list so that we can keep you updated of new developments. We can, however, advise you on the medication you can purchase at pharmacies nearby or send a prescription to you (see cost). Is this service available even when I am outside of South Africa? Yes! You can request for a call back and chat with our doctors worldwide. Please make sure that you provide a mobile number/ landline or Skype account when booking so that we can connect with you better. We will also be able to call you on your mobile if the number is based in the following countries: Both landlines and mobiles in Canada, China, Guam, Hong Kong SAR, Puerto Rico, Singapore, South Africa, Thailand and United States.

Please email our doctor directly at: doctor@centurymedica.com. Make sure that you include in the email your login email, name and consult time before your session so that we have all the information to assist you with.  Photographs should be taken in good light, must be well focused and preferably with another item next to the object for scale (e.g. ruler, coin, finger, common object of a fixed size). You can also scan your medical reports/test results to email to us. Your medical information will be stored securely compliant with HIPPA( see below). Is my information secure? Yes! Your information is stored with the highest level of security that is HIPPA compliant (HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996) is United States legislation that provides data privacy and security provisions for safeguarding medical information). Can I book a session for someone else? Yes! For children under the age of 18, you will have to be present the whole time. For persons over the age of 18, they will have to have their own account for privacy and confidentiality as we store medical information using the email as the identifier.  Can I open multiple accounts? To provide you with the best service that is tailor-made for you, it is better to use only one account so that we have your complete history. You may choose to provide only partial information regarding your condition but this can have a negative impact on the appropriateness and validity of the medical advice you are provided with. We rely solely on the information you provide during the consultation and via email. The responsibility to provide accurate information and the resulting advice rests with you.
