When can I change my option?
You can change your option with effect from 1st
January each year by notifying the scheme in
writing no later than the date indicated on your
communication from the scheme.
How do I change my option?
You will be advised annually at least 30 days
prior to the benefit and contribution changes for
the following year. A brochure or letter detailing
the changes will be sent to you. Should you wish
to change your option, the process can be
activated by using the facility on the website or
mobile app. You can also complete a Benefit
Option Change form that will be available from
our website.
Members, who do not wish to change, will remain
on their current option.
If I was previously on an option with
a savings account, can I use the
savings to cover shortfalls?
No, as per the Medical Schemes Act your medical
savings account, in this instance, must be paid
out to you after 4 months, on application.
