Medical cover that can keep pace with real life
We all need some form of medical aid cover to make sure that proper treatment and care are available when they are needed most. Hospital stays, surgery, serious illness, chronic conditions and traumatic events can create costs that are difficult to absorb without comprehensive medical cover.
Discovery Health Medical Scheme is designed to give members peace of mind across every stage of the health journey, while still offering flexibility across lifestyle, budget and benefit needs.
Benefit flexibility
The 24 plan options give you the flexibility to choose benefits that better match your health needs, lifestyle priorities and monthly budget.
Peace of mind
Discovery Health Medical Scheme is the only open medical scheme in South Africa with a AAA rating from the Global Credit Rating Agency.
Integrated value
Members get access to a Discovery Pay account, discounted pay-per-visit access to Virgin Active and Planet Fitness, and Vitality Travel rewards with a 10% discount on local and international flights, accommodation and car hire.
Choosing the right medical aid structure matters more than simply choosing the cheapest plan.
We can help compare hospital cover, day-to-day benefits, chronic medicine support and Discovery integration so the plan structure matches your household properly.
