Who We Are

Momentum Health Strongly Positioned in Changing Healthcare Environment.

Highlights

• Contribution Increase & Benefit Changes • Scheme Financial Stability

Momentum Health's average contribution increase for 2012 has been set at 8.8%. All existing benefits were retained and a new trauma benefit added that provides cover for certain day-to-day claims from risk benefits, following specific traumatic events.

Its membership has more than doubled in the past five years, to above 90 000 principal members in 2011. And, while the industry's average age has risen, Momentum Health reduced its average principal member age to the lowest level of the top ten largest open schemes in the industry (at 42.7 years).

"With a future-focused benefit philosophy in place, we are confident that we will remain the best fit for private healthcare consumers into the future," says McHugh.

Here are some reasons why you should join or be proud of choosing Momentum Health as your healthcare funder:

1. You can save up to 30% on your medical aid contribution by opting to use associated providers.

2. You can use the mobisite, to find a healthcare provider nearest to you, check Savings and HealthSaver balances, claims histories, HealthReturns earned and more.

3. Members get access to the Health Platform benefit which encourages health awareness, enhances quality of life and gives peace of mind through preventative care.

4. The HealthReturns programme is a Momentum initiative which allows you to earn cash back for checking your health status, manage conditions (if applicable) and by keeping active.

5. Momentum Health members who also belong to Multiply earn double the HealthReturns for being in the top two activity levels. This means instead of R1 800 you can earn up to R3 600 per adult member per year!

6. The HealthSaver allows individuals to make provision for additional medical expenses that they may incur, when day-to-day cover is depleted. And, you can add another R1800 just by opting to have your HealthReturns paid into your HealthSaver account.

7. The HealthWaiver offers peace of mind that medical cover will be continued in the event of death, functional impairment or critical illness of the principal member and/or spouse.

8. The HealthFunder is a savings vehicle that assists you to make dedicated provision for your post-retirement healthcare costs via a retirement annuity or investment plan.
