Is it time your clients tell their current medical scheme to take a hike?

Advertorial

Is your clients’ medical aid contribution increase holiday about to end? Help them join Fedhealth for year-round medical aid affordability.

Every price imaginable is being hiked – from fuel and electricity, to daily living expenses, school fees and transport costs. It’s crazy, right?

Maybe your clients caught a bit of a breather when their current medical aid announced an increase holiday towards the end of last year, but with that coming to an end soon, they will now have to find the money somewhere to foot that bill too.

Luckily, your clients do have a say in the matter. They can tell their current medical aid to “take a hike” and switch to Fedhealth, which lets them create and control their own medical aid affordability – all year long.

This is how Fedhealth ensures affordable medical aid 365 days of the year:

1. Our flexiFED options are packed with unique benefits paid from Risk

Fedhealth is the only medical scheme that pays for certain unique benefits from members’ hospital/Risk cover and not their day-to-day funds, so they can use these for other expenses. 

These unique benefits include unlimited network GP visits, 7 days of take-home medicine upon discharge from hospital, specialised radiology like MRI/CT scans, female contraceptives, trauma treatment at a casualty ward, and post-hospitalisation treatment for 30 days. This is why we call our flexiFED hospital plans “supercharged” by the way, since they come loaded with these day-to-day benefits instead of covering hospital related expenses only.

2. Take off 25% every month with Elect

Are your clients relatively healthy and not foreseeing any planned procedures like knee replacements in the near future? Then a Fedhealth Elect variant might just be perfect for them! 

Fedhealth’s Elect variant helps members save 25% every month with a co-payment of R13 800 on planned hospital admissions only at private hospitals. This co-payment does not apply to emergencies – if members have a medical emergency, they will always be taken to their nearest private hospital.

3.Save 11% every month with GRID

With Fedhealth’s GRID option variant, members can save 11% every month by using over 120 world-class private network hospitals. In case of emergencies, they will still be taken to the nearest private hospital for stabilising treatment. If they voluntarily choose not to use a GRID hospital while on a GRID option, they will have a R13 800 co-payment.

4. Upgrade to a higher option any time of the year

Arguably one of Fedhealth’s most valuable benefits! On Fedhealth, members can pay for the cover they need right now, not for future ‘what-ifs’, because we allow them to upgrade to a higher option any time of the year when a life-changing event happens, such as pregnancy or serious illness. How’s that for peace of mind and affordability all rolled into one?

5. Choose from three ways to structure and pay for day-to-day benefits

Only Fedhealth gives your clients 3 ways to structure and pay for their day-to-day benefits, so they make their own price according to their budget. 

Members can use their flexiFED option as a Hospital Plan to keep their monthly contributions to a minimum by paying for day-to-day expenses from their own pocket; or use it as a Savings Plan where they pay back their day-to-day benefit from the beginning of the year in equal portions; or finally, use it as a Flexible Savings Plan to choose how much savings they want and only pay for what they use, interest-free over 12 months.

It’s a no-brainer really, to help your clients take control over rising medical aid costs, help them join Fedhealth! Call us today on 0860 002 153 or visit fedhealth.co.za
