Affinity Health designs budget-friendly plan options for young professionals, families with children and retirees, so you can access private Healthcare Practitioners and private hospitals without unexpected financial strain.

• Support services: 24/7 telephonic assistance, Emergency Medical Response coordination and Healthcare Practitioner consultations where available.

Choosing the right level of combined cover for your household

Select a plan level based on family size, ages and likely healthcare use. Young families often prioritise stronger day-to-day benefits for child healthcare and immunisations, while older adults may choose higher in-hospital limits. Consider these practical steps to decide:

Step-by-step selection guide

• Estimate routine needs: number of GP visits, dental check-ups and eyewear replacements per year.
• Assess inpatient risk: any planned procedures or known conditions that may require hospital stays.
• Compare plan options: review combined plan benefit levels and in-hospital limits to estimate potential out-of-pocket exposure.

Affordability and plan options

Affinity Health’s Standard Range and Innovator plans provide multiple combination plan options for individuals and families. Group Cover is available for employer groups. Use the provider finder to verify which private hospitals and Healthcare Practitioners are accessible in your area: Find a Provider.

Practical considerations for Mpumalanga residents

• Network proximity: choose plans that include hospitals close to your home or workplace to reduce travel time in urgent situations.
• Waiting periods: review waiting periods for specific benefits such as maternity or elective procedures before relying on cover.
• Excess choices: higher excess can lower premiums but increases short-term out-of-pocket costs for hospital events.
