Why an affordable combination health plan matters in Cape Town

Cape Town residents face the same unpredictable healthcare costs as the rest of South Africa - routine consultations, sudden injuries and in-hospital care. An affordable combination health plan brings day-to-day benefits and in-hospital protection together so you can budget monthly and avoid large out-of-pocket bills during serious events. Affinity Health offers combination options designed for individuals, families with children, young professionals and retirees who want essential protection without any surprises.

What a combination health plan includes

• Day-to-day benefits: GP visits, basic dentistry and optometry network access through the day-to-day component.
• Hospital benefits: Coverage for in-hospital admissions, theatre and ward fees and approved in-hospital procedures through the hospital component.
• Convenience: One plan handles routine care and major events, simplifying claims and monthly budgeting.

How Affinity Health structures combination plans

For younger members, the Junior Combined option provides cover for children, while retirees can choose from Senior Combined options.
