Detailed benefit breakdown and practical guidance

Below is a practical breakdown to help you evaluate combined medical insurance for Pretoria scenarios. Consider how many GP visits your family uses annually, whether children require frequent care, and if any household members may need surgical cover in the near term.

Benefit focus areas to compare
