Choosing the right medical aid
It’s unpleasant being ill but it’s something we’ve become used to in the past 2 years with COVID-19. A key financial decision at any stage of your life includes preserving your health and what medical aid cover to choose, and with which medical aid scheme. Consider these 3 factors for a top-tier medical aid:
- A good hospital plan, as this can get very expensive.
- Day-to-day benefits for daily medical expenses.
- Chronic benefits for life-threatening diseases.
