YOUR MEDICAL BENEFITS DURING ‘OPEN SEASON’

South Africa is entering medical aid “open season”, where members can change their options. It is opportune to consider your requirements and benefits, rather than simply remain on the same plan for lack of an in-depth understanding. Kerry Vermeulen, a healthcare adviser at Alexander Forbes Health, says many medical aid members find it hard to understand their benefits and how best to use them. Knowing more about how schemes operate could help you make an informed choice about which option is most appropriate for you and your family. It makes sense to take advantage of a healthcare broker’s advice and assistance, which you don’t pay extra for.
