Type of Plan
Here’s where Fedhealth is truly unique: we let YOU choose how to pay for your day-to-day savings.
Choose how you pay for your day-to-day benefits and which hospitals you want available to you
Hospital Plan
This plan provides cover for hospitalisation,
ensuring you're protected during medical
emergencies. However, for day-to-day benefits
like dentist visits or medications, you'll need to
pay from your pocket.
Get in-hospital cover, but pay for day-to-day expenses like medication at the pharmacy yourself.
This keeps your contributions as low as possible.

Savings Plan
Pick a Savings Plan to enjoy the
benefits of a traditional medical
savings account. This is solid
hospital cover with an additional
amount added to your premium to
cover your day-to-day expenses,
such as a specialist visits or blood
tests.
We give you an annual pool of funds for day-to-day expenses upfront. It’s already added to your monthly contribution.
Since Fedhealth pays more from Risk, your day-to-day benefits tend to go further with us!

Flexible Savings Plan
A Fedhealth innovation! A Flexible
Savings Plan is for you if you want
mostly a hospital plan, but like the
idea of having a day-to-day back-up
plan. Make transfers from your
MediVault to your Wallet to pay for
antibiotics at the pharmacy or a
physio visit. You only pay for what
you use – interest-free over 12
months.
Unique to Fedhealth! This is a day-to-day back-up plan in case you need it.
You only pay for the day-to-day savings you use – interest-free over 12 months.

How does Flexible Savings work?
Let’s say you only get sick once in the year, or hurt.
You’d only want to pay for the medical savings you need to cover this one event, right?
Here’s how it would work:
- You need R600 worth of medication for this one-time flu.
- Simply activate the R600 from your Fedhealth Savings to pay for this medication.
- The R600 you used is divided into 12 equal payments and added to your monthly premium in order for you to pay it off.

In summary:
You spent R600 of your Savings:
R600 / 12 = R50 pm
In summary:
You spent R600 of your Savings:
R600 / 12 = R50 pm
Added to your monthly payment:
E.g: R1 716 + R50 = R1 766 p/m for the rest of the year
Instead of paying R2 000 p/m for traditional savings, you only spend the R50p/m to pay back what you’ve used.
