@inquestion7: Medical aid is supposed to provide South Africans with financial protection when they need healthcare most. But with rising medical aid contributions, doctor’s consultation shortfalls, hospital co-payments, medical scan costs and out-of-pocket pharmacy expenses, are members really getting value for their money? As South African medical schemes announce their 2027 medical aid contribution increases, questions are being raised about healthcare affordability, medical scheme benefits and whether private healthcare cover is becoming too expensive for ordinary South Africans. If members are paying more every month, shouldn't they be getting more in return? How much is your medical aid really covering? #medicalaid #southafrica #healthcare #healthcarecrisis #privatehealthcare #healthcarecosts #costofliving #InQuestion

I hate it here :
What kills me is that you’ll pay yearly then they’ll be years where you never even touched it and yet your money is still gone. There should be a law where they are liable to give you back half of what you paid if it wasn’t used in a year.

1. It should be illegal for a medical to deny claims 2. It should be illegal for a doctor to charge a rate more than 100%.
