Extensive medical cover, in and out of hospital
There’s a reason comprehensive medical aid options are so appealing: they offer
extensive cover for almost all medical expenses you could face.
With Fedhealth’s comprehensive options, members enjoy the perfect cover for
every phase of their lives, tailored around their changing medical needs. From
the young couple dreaming about a baby, to the single, career-driven CEO, or a
grown-up family with student dependants – we keep them all in good health.
Each comprehensive option offers unlimited hospitalisation and provides different levels of cover for day-to-day claims, such as medical consultations and
prescribed medication. This is funded from a Savings Account, as well as the
Out-of-Hospital Expenses Benefit. The only exception is Maxima Basis, which
funds this only from the Out-of-Hospital Expenses Benefit. All comprehensive
options have a Threshold Benefit.
Unlimited private hospitalisation at any hospital is available on all comprehensive options, except for Maxima StandardNet, which offers unlimited hospitalisation at Network Hospitals only.
Maxima Basis members starting a family will be pleasantly surprised by the
Maternity Benefit which this option offers:
• 2 x 2D antenatal scans per year
• Antenatal classes to the value of R950 presented by a midwife
• 4 x antenatal and four postnatal consultations with a midwife
• 1 x amniocentesis (if required).
All of this is covered from the Out-of-Hospital Expenses Benefit and Risk.
Should a member suffer from a chronic condition, they could also benefit from
extensive chronic cover provided by our comprehensive options.
The range of conditions covered varies according to the option.

The Threshold Benefit pays for certain day-to-day expenses once Savings and OHEB

Threshold Level is reached through the accumulation of claims paid from Savings,
FR - Fedhealth Rate
OHEB and the member’s own pocket through the year at the Fedhealth Rate, unless
otherwise specified. Where limits apply, expenses will only accumulate up to this limit
and this limit will also apply to refunds from Threshold. A 20% co-payment will apply
to all claims paid from the Threshold Benefit on Maxima Standard, StandardNet and
Basis and a 10% co-payment will apply to all claims paid from the Threshold Benefit on
Maxima Exec. No co-payment will apply to GP or specialist consultations in-network.
OHEB - Out-of-Hospital Expenses Benefit
[ 9
Benefits that set us apart
What sets us apart is that together with our first-rate medical aid options, we offer unique value-added
benefits. With some of these tangible benefits we pay more from Risk than other schemes to ensure that
members’ day-to-day medical spending not only goes further, but also works harder when they really need it.
Benefits unique to Fedhealth:
• Unlimited GP visits to Network GPs paid from Risk and never from Savings on all comprehensive options
• Child rates for financially dependent children up to 27 years of age – so student dependants pay rates
applicable to children, provided they’re unmarried and not earning more than the maximum social pension
• Upgrades to higher options any time of the year within 30 days of diagnosis of a dread disease, or in the case
of a life changing event – which means the member’s never locked into an option, and can upgrade should
something dramatic happen that changes their circumstances during the year. *New contributions will apply
Where we pay more from Risk than other schemes:
• Post-hospitalisation treatment for up to 30 days after discharge from hospital (physiotherapy, pathology,
occupational therapy, speech therapy and general radiology) – that means most follow-up treatment for a full
30-day period paid directly from Risk not to deplete the member’s day-to-day benefit
• 7 days of take-home medication after discharge from hospital paid for – provided the medication is dispensed
by the hospital and reflects on the original hospital account
• Specialised radiology like MRI and CT scans - paid from Risk and never from Savings – no matter what option
the member’s on, whether performed in or out-of-hospital
• Trauma treatment at a casualty ward - whether admitted to hospital or not, emergency treatment, like
stitches, is always paid from Risk and never from the member’s day-to-day benefit
• Cover for female contraception - including oral, patches, certain injectables as well as IUDs that include
Mirena®, contraceptive rings and implants on all comprehensive options. *Must be prescribed by a GP or
gynaecologist and not applicable to pills prescribed for acne
• The Screening Benefit - health screenings for women and children, cardiac screenings as well as an annual
flu vaccine funded from Risk and not from the member’s day-to-day benefit. And on top comprehensive options,
this benefit even includes screening and preventative programmes for older members as well.
How we add value:
•The Fedhealth Baby Programme
•24-Hour Fedhealth Nurseline
•FREE trauma counselling for practical and emotional support
•Emergency transport/ response through Europ Assistance
•Comprehensive managed care programmes:
Aid for AIDS (AfA) for those living with HIV/AIDS,
AsthmaCare ensures that asthma patients still lead a normal life,
DiabeticCare assists diabetics in managing their blood sugar,
CardioCare to prevent heart attacks in Coronary Heart Disease
sufferers, and Oncology Disease Management that supports cancer
sufferers with comprehensive care including cover for chemotherapy,
radiotherapy, approved medication, related consultations, pathology
and general radiology.
And then members still get:
• Professional and extreme sports cover - injuries sustained during sporting activities are covered within the
benefits and rules of the Scheme, provided the treatment is received within the borders of South Africa
• In-hospital dentistry for children under 8 - we cover the hospital and anaesthetist costs from the Major
Medical Benefit while the dentist’s account comes from day-to-day benefits (Savings and OHEB). *The
Authorisation Centre must be contacted at least 48 hours before the procedure. Authorisation will be granted
provided no dental authorisation was granted for the same child within at least six months of the required
admission date
• Easy membership for child dependants - who are at an age and status to afford their own medical aid,
meaning no underwriting required for child dependants moving from their parent’s medical aid onto their
own at Fedhealth.
