Is there a danger if I do not review my medical aid?
Private providers charge way more than medical schemes pay. That is a fact!
Do you know what your medical aid pays private providers?
Don't assume your plan pays everything in-hospital.
Even if you are with the most expensive plan, it still will not pay for everything!
Medical schemes updated their plans every year and you need to be aware of both good and bad benefit changes.
You MUST review your medical aid at least once a yea
What type of health plan should I have?
Obviously, cost is a big factor when looking at the types of benefits you can get.
A comprehensive medical aid offers the best cover, but may be out of your budget.
Medical schemes have a variety of plans from which to choose and with our professional help, we can find a plan that best suits your needs and pocket!
Email this form and let us present some ideas to you.
Private healthcare providers can charge up to 500% of medical scheme rates.Medical aids add procedure co-payments as well.
These are significant costs you must consider.
A Gap or Top-Up plan is a separate insurance that covers most in-hospital claim shortfalls and any co-payments.
It is a vital safety net, ensuring you have enough to cover medical treatments, without having to pay for unexpected costs.
Joining a hospital plan with Gap Cover is the most affordable way for families to protect against rising costs in 2026.
Protect yourself by joining Zest's GAP or top-up insurance plan.
Specialised Dental treatments can be extremely expensive!
The costs of braces, root canal, implants and so on, can run into thousands of rand.
Most treatments are done out-of-hospital, and are paid from your savings.
That can result in less money available for other medical needs and family limits being used on one member only!
Dental treatment is something we all need and it is vital you consider the Best Dental Insurance Plan

Are you paying for benefits you don't need?
- Do you have a threshold safety net with your plan?
- Do you know how it works?
- Do you ever use it, or are you paying (a lot) for a benefit you don't need?
- Do you have family members who have higher healthcare needs?
If so, then it may be better for them to have their own plans in order to stop limits being reached and having to pay for other members needs yourself. - Do you have children who are full-time students?
If you do, there are excellent student plans to investigate.
