1 Saver options Choose from: Maxima Saver Maxima EntrySaver Unlimited hospitalisation, plus the benefit of Day-to-Day and Chronic cover. Those who want all the perks associated with top-notch hospital cover, but also require a medical aid option that covers their day-to-day healthcare spending, should consider our saver options. Single, young professionals can benefit from both saver options, as they provide quality hospital cover complemented by a Medical Savings Account that handles day-to-day healthcare expenses. Maxima Range Unlimited hospitalisation at all private hospitals is available on Maxima Saver, whilst members can enjoy unlimited hospitalisation at Network Hospitals only on Maxima EntrySaver. As an added benefit, both options allow all beneficiaries to visit a nominated Network GP for unlimited consultations covered from Risk and on Maxima Saver, there s a Basic Dentistry benefit that is also covered from Risk. These Risk benefits apply once Savings is depleted. Both options also provide a Chronic Disease Benefit that covers 25 chronic conditions at 100% of the Medicine Price List. Saver Options

8 [ 6 Benefits that set us apart What sets us apart is that together with our first-rate medical aid options, we offer unique value-added benefits. With some of these tangible benefits we pay more from Risk than other schemes to ensure that members day-to-day medical spending not only goes further, but also works harder when they really need it. Benefits unique to Fedhealth: Unlimited visits to a nominated Network GP paid from Risk once Savings is depleted on both Saver options Child rates for financially dependent children up to 27 years of age so student dependants pay rates applicable to children, provided they re unmarried and not earning more than the maximum social pension Upgrades to higher options any time of the year within 30 days of diagnosis of a dread disease, or in the case of a life changing event which means the member s never locked into an option, and can upgrade should something dramatic happen that changes their circumstances during the year. *New contributions will apply Where we pay more from Risk than other schemes: Post-hospitalisation treatment for up to 30 days after discharge from hospital (physiotherapy, pathology, occupational therapy, speech therapy and general radiology) that means most follow-up treatment for a full 30-day period paid directly from Risk not to deplete the member s day-to-day benefit 7 days of take-home medication - after discharge from hospital paid for provided the medication is dispensed by the hospital and reflects on the original hospital account Specialised radiology like MRI and CT scans - paid from Risk and never from Savings no matter what option the member s on, whether performed in or out-of-hospital Trauma treatment at a casualty ward - whether admitted to hospital or not, emergency treatment, like stitches, is always paid from Risk and never from the member s day-to-day benefit Cover for female contraception - including oral, patches, certain injectables as well as IUDs that include Mirena, contraceptive rings and implants on all comprehensive and saver options. *Must be prescribed by a GP or gynaecologist and not applicable to pills prescribed for acne The Screening Benefit - health screenings for women and children, cardiac screenings as well as an annual flu vaccine funded from Risk and not from the member s day-to-day benefit. How we add value: The Fedhealth Baby Programme 24-Hour Fedhealth Nurseline FREE trauma counselling for practical and emotional support Emergency transport/ response through Europ Assistance Comprehensive managed care programmes: Aid for AIDS (AfA) for those living with HIV/AIDS, AsthmaCare ensures that asthma patients still lead a normal life, DiabeticCare assists diabetics in managing their blood sugar, CardioCare to prevent heart attacks in Coronary Heart Disease sufferers, and Oncology Disease Management that supports cancer sufferers with comprehensive care including cover for chemotherapy, radiotherapy, approved medication, related consultations, pathology and general radiology. And then members still get: Professional and extreme sports cover - injuries sustained during sporting activities are covered within the benefits and rules of the Scheme, provided the treatment is received within the borders of South Africa In-hospital dentistry for children under 8 - we cover the hospital and anaesthetist costs from the Major Medical Benefit while the dentist s account comes from day-to-day benefits. *The Authorisation Centre must be contacted at least 48 hours before the procedure. Authorisation will be granted provided no dental authorisation was granted for the same child within at least six months of the required admission date. This benefit does not apply to Maxima EntrySaver Easy membership for child dependants - who are at an age and status to afford their own medical aid, meaning no underwriting required for child dependants moving from their parent s medical aid onto their own at Fedhealth.
