Hospital Plan

Momentum medical aid has a hospital plan. When using specialists suggested by Momentum health, you receive full cover while in hospital. There is no limit annually for private hospitals, with the exception of Ingwe. The medical aid includes trauma benefits and emergency response.

Included in the scheme is a savings account that will cover the day-to-day medical expenses. Savings that are not used do not fall away but are added to the next year. There is also a safety net when the savings account runs dry. Chronic medicines are paid when defined.

Health Platform and Health Saver

The Health Platform is freely available to members of this medical aid. The purpose is to make people more aware of their health. By having regular checkups, diseases are detected and diagnoses at an early stage, saving money and possibly the patient’s life. Included in the Health Platform are:

· Tests included in the prevention or early detection of diseases are mammograms, pap smears, prostate tests, DEXA scans, blood sugar tests and cholesterol tests.

· Immunisations for babies.

· The maternity program consists of scans, antenatal and pediatric visits.

· You and your family are allowed a dental checkup each year.

· The disease management programs include diseases such as hypertension, and diabetes.

The HealthSaver complements the Health Platform by covering the day-to-day treatments by doctors and medicines that are prescribed. Emergency care, maternity and care, and accidents are the exceptions where no co-payment is required.

Health Plans

Momentum medical aid has different health plans.

· Ingwe Plan is the entry-level plan, and a very affordable medical aid. It contains a hospital plan with the option of the private hospitals suggested, or alternatively State hospitals at a lower monthly payment. Prime Cure, Medicross or CareCross, are the choices for the day-to-day treatment.

· Access Plan covers unlimited hospitalisation at suggested private hospitals. The choice for day-to-day treatments is the same as the Ingwe Plan, Prime Cure, Medicross or CareCross.

· Custom Plan covers hospitalisation at any private hospital. However, when you choose one of the private hospitals selected under the associated hospitals, you receive a discount on your monthly payment. The same principle applies for chronic treatments and medication. Discount is offered when medication is bought at Medipost or Atlas, and maximum discount is received when you use State facilities.
