The network includes over 100 of South Africa’s best private hospitals and 90% of our members live within a 10-kilometre radius of these hospitals. You can still use a non-network hospital if you wish, but you will then have to pay a R13 000 co-payment. However, the co-payment does not apply in case of emergencies.
