Our 1st option is Bronze. This is a hospital plan with very limited day-to-day benefits. The option is aimed at members that are joining a medical aid for the 1st time and for whom affordability might be an issue. Remember, you have to start somewhere and cover against major medical expenses, which can ruin you financially, is the priority. Contributions start from R843 per month. This option will cover you at 100% of the scheme tariff while hospitalised. The odd visit to a doctor out-of-hospital will be for your own account. The option is therefore suitable for younger and healthier members that are not concerned about day-to-day cover, but want to protect themselves big hospital bills following e.g. A motor accident or other trauma that requires hospitalisation.
