Frequently Asked Questions

Contact the Unity Health call centre on 0861 366 006 for a list of providers close to where the member lives or works. Make an appointment with the provider and ensure the member presents their Unity Health membership card and ID when they arrive for the consultation. You may also search for a provider using the Unity Health app or the member can log into their member portal and search for a provider online.

The Unity Health call centre is open during the following times:

• Monday to Friday: 08:00 to 17:00 and • Saturdays: 08:00 to 13:00

• In the case of emergencies after hours call ER24 on 087 135 1248.

Call the Unity Health call centre on 0861 366 006 and ask for a provider request form. Fill out the form with the member’s GP details and email to Unity Health at networks@unityhealth.co.za. Unity Health will contact the member’s GP and advise the member whether the GP decided to join or not.

The member has access to the Unity Health website portal. The member has to go onto www.unityhealth.co.za and register to gain access to search for a provider close to them via the Unity Health unique GEO mapping tool. The member can also contact Unity Health on 0861 366 006 or email at networks@unityhealth.co.za. Unity Health will forward the member a list of providers closest to them.

In isolated cases, if the member did pay the provider directly, they may fill out a reimbursement form and email Unity Health at claims@unityhealth.co.za with all supporting documentation within 6 months from the date of treatment. Unity Health will assess and reimburse the member in respect of all valid claims.
An “emergency” is an event of a sudden, and at the time, unexpected onset of a health condition that requires immediate medical or surgical treatment, where failure to provide medical or surgical treatment would result in serious impairment to bodily functions or serious dysfunction of a bodily organ or would place the person’s life in jeopardy. Examples include heart attacks, strokes.
