Medical Aids in South Africa
South African citizens are blessed with an excellent private health system. Schemes such as Liberty Medical Aid, Momentum Medical Aid, Genesis Medical Aid and Discovery Health are all financially healthy and they enjoy the esteem of international financial viability rating agencies. As the second largest scheme in South Africa and with a history of thirty two years in the industry the Bonitas medical scheme is certainly a giant player in the health industry.
The public health system in South Africa compares very well with public health systems elsewhere in the world and has even been rated as better that those found in some first world countries. Unfortunately, South Africa has many citizens simply too poor to pay for health care, even for affordable private plans such as Bonitas BonCap. This means that the public system is under tremendous pressure. They simply do not have the facilities and resources to provide a quality service to all South Africans. The only alternative is to become a member of a private medical scheme.
