The "Medical Aid Season" closes towards the end of each year and is the time where Medical Aid Schemes and Health Insurance providers publish their product changes and update their premiums. It is an important time of year to evaluate your medical needs and choose products that suit your budget for the coming year.
It is a great opportunity to talk to South Africans about the difference between Medical Aid and Health Insurance plans. Medical insurance can be an affordable alternative for those that can’t afford a medical aid. It can also be taken with a Medical Aid plan to add Day-to-Day benefits for a more comprehensive portfolio.
