How to choose the right combined plan in the Western Cape

Selecting the correct level depends on age profile, expected routine visits and any planned procedures. Start by listing expected GP visits, dental checks and any planned surgeries. Then match those needs to a combined plan that balances day-to-day limits and in-hospital protection.

Step-by-step selection guide

• Count routine care needs: Estimate GP and dental visits per year for each household member.
• Consider hospital exposure: Think about potential surgical or admission risks linked to lifestyle and age.
• Compare plans: Review combined plan inclusions and choose the one with the right mix of day-to-day and hospital benefits.
