Genesis Private Hospital Plan
There was a time when young couples would start with a hospital plan and then progress to a comprehensive medical aid. Today its the other way round. Cash-strapped South Africans are resorting to hospital plans because they can no longer afford the high fees that come with having a medical aid. You might want to consider a Genesis Private Hospital Plan.
Genesis Private Hospital Plan – A Good Alternative to Medical Aid
Having medical cover is essential in South Africa, but if you can’t afford comprehensive medical cover, a hospital plan is a good alternative. So these hospital plans provide cover for your in-hospital procedures and check-ups.
Before you sign up for a hospital plan, make sure that you know which procedures aren’t covered. The reason for this is that sometimes you need to make a co-payment.
Genesis has different plans, allowing you to rely on quality health care. They are known as one of the best medical aid schemes in South Africa. Since 1995 they have been providing their exceptional benefits to South Africans at affordable prices.
They are financially sound and are also known for their excellent claims paying process. South Africans can have confidence in this financially solid medical scheme.
