Legal basis and practical claim submission tips

Section 59 governs 'Double Insurance'. It establishes that while an insured person cannot profit beyond 100% of the actual expense incurred, she has the legal right to claim from her health fund first, and then claim the remaining out-of-pocket balance (Top-Up) from her private commercial insurer up to full indemnification.
