Cancer is an overwhelming diagnosis for the patient and his/her family. As such, Fedhealth goes out of our way to support members who have to walk this path, and we understand that each cancer journey looks different.
Fedhealth’s Oncology Disease Management Programme has been structured especially to support members with cancer. Our team is made up of highly skilled healthcare professionals who work in conjunction with your doctor to ensure that the treatment you receive is both clinically appropriate and cost-effective. Our team is also supported by a number of oncologists and haematologists from the private, public and academic sectors.
