Choosing the right combined plan for your Stellenbosch household

Selecting the most suitable combined plan depends on family size, ages, and typical healthcare use. Young families commonly prioritise stronger day-to-day benefits for frequent child healthcare, while older adults often prioritise higher hospital limits. Use the steps below to decide confidently.

Step-by-step selection guide

• Estimate routine use: Count expected GP visits, dental check-ups and eyewear replacements per year.
• Consider risk exposure: Think about planned procedures, recreational or occupational risks.
• Match benefits to budget: Use sample plan summaries to compare monthly costs and likely out-of-pocket exposure.

Stellenbosch-specific considerations

• Local private hospital access and GP availability can shorten wait times for non-emergency care.
• Families with young children may benefit from stronger day-to-day allowances for vaccinations and frequent GP visits.
• Working professionals often prefer plans that combine core day-to-day protection with robust hospital limits.

• Opt for higher contribution levels toward hospital events if you want lower monthly premiums, balancing risk and cost carefully.
• Use remote consultations for minor concerns to reduce unnecessary in-person visits and preserve day-to-day limits.
