Combination Health Plan Cape Town: Practical cover for everyday care and in-hospital events

A Combination Health Plan Cape Town residents can rely on brings together day-to-day benefits (GP visits, basic dentistry and optometry access) with hospital protection for admissions, theatre fees and approved in-hospital procedures. Affinity Health focuses on making private health insurance accessible and budget-friendly for individuals, families with children, young professionals and retirees across South Africa.

Who benefits most from a combination plan?

• Young professionals who need routine GP access and protection against unexpected surgical bills.
• Families with children who use frequent primary-care services and need in-hospital security for accidents or serious illness.
• Retirees seeking straightforward hospital protection combined with limited out-of-hospital benefits.

Core components of Affinity Health combination plans

• Day-to-day care: consultations with a Healthcare Practitioner, basic dentistry and optical benefits where applicable.
• Hospital protection: in-hospital admissions, theatre and ward fees, approved in-hospital procedures and allied in-hospital services.
• Support services: remote consultations with a Healthcare Practitioner and Emergency Medical Response coordination when required.

Why Cape Town residents choose a combined approach

Living in Cape Town often means balancing active lifestyles, family healthcare needs and the risk of unexpected in-hospital treatment after accidents. A combination plan centralises routine care and major-event protection into a single monthly premium, helping households plan their healthcare spending without sacrificing access to private providers.
