The cheapest medical aid for all your needs
What is medical aid?
Medical aid is a product where a member buys “benefits” from a specific medical scheme. The medical aid then pays for medical costs of the member, but coverage and payment will be as stated by the specific medical scheme.

Affordability is a major issue for members. Medical scheme membership is primarily income related and makes up a big portion of members’ monthly expenses. Lack of affordability and trying to find the cheapest medical aid with reasonable cover prevents more members joining.
