AON Minet Set Deadline for Uploading Dependants Documents on The 10th Of April 2021

AON Minet has issued a directive to TSC-employed teachers to ensure they have scanned and uploaded documents for their dependants to their online portal.

A good number of teachers have confirmed that they have received text messages for AON Minet imploring them to upload dependants’ documents.

“Dear Mrs. Sharon, we are yet to receive supporting documents for your dependants. Your dependants shall be removed from the hospital system by the 10th of April should we not recive these documents before then. Upload documents through the link https://collaborationkenya.minet.com/tsc STOP *456*9*5#”read a text message sent to one teacher from Nyamira County.

Teachers who will not have uploaded documents by the deadline of 10th of April 2021, will not be able to get health services for their dependants in any AON accredited hospital in Kenya.

AON Minet is a prominent provider of insurance services in Kenya. The Teachers Service Commission (TSC) has AON Minet covered all of its teaching staff.

The teachers contribute to the scheme via their TSC payslip deductions. Teachers do not receive their medical allowance as it is channelled towards AON Minet’s cover. TSC’ cover cost a cool Sh. 9 Billion last year (2020) and 14 Million in 2021.

Teachers are required to upload a birth certificate for children who are below eighteen years. For children who have been born recently, a birth notification will do.

For teachers who are married, they are required to upload a marriage certificate or a sworn affidavit. Besides, they are required to upload the Identification Card of their spouses.

If a teacher has children in colleges or university or in high school who are adults (i.e. 18 years and above), the teacher is required to their original ID cards or school ID card as prove for the same.

For cases where a child is disabled, a disability certificate is required.

AON Minet Covering Covid-19 Treatment for Teachers

It is even more good news for teachers after being allowed pay despite being at home and not teaching, as they are now going to benefit from TSC AON Minet covering treatment for COVID-19 cases among teachers.

For starters, AON Minet provides cover for medical services. Now they will also be offering cover for teachers undergoing COVID-19 related health complications.

Dr. Nancy Macharia stated that any teacher who is diagnosed with the novel Coronavirus and then shows symptoms, they will undergo treatment at hospitals that have a deal with AON Minet.

“In line with this, Minet Kenya-led consortium in conjunction with TSC has been and will keep supporting the government’s efforts to fight COVID-19 by ensuring that any member diagnosed with COVID-19 and shows symptoms, will be able to receive treatment at the designated scheme medical centers,” said TSC Chief Executive Officer Dr. Nancy Macharia.

To make access to this service easy, TSC has introduced a USSD tool and a tele-counseling toll-free line that teachers and their dependents can use in reporting any Coronavirus case.

“We have introduced a COVID – 19 cases reporting USSD tool which is *202*07# for teachers and their dependents and mental health and psychological issues support tele-counseling toll-free line 0800720029,” Dr. Nancy Macharia said. She also added that this will enable members to be able to access treatment through telemedicine.

Teachers covered by AON Minet have access to insurance packages that include outpatient, inpatient, optical, maternity, dental, group life and last expense (funeral)
