What Fedhealth members actually say.

9.1/10· verified
MyFlexi was a revelation

My partner gets the GP/dental allocation he actually uses, I take more specialist budget. No other scheme allows this.

Maternity support was top-tier

Case manager phoned every fortnight. Felt looked-after through a complicated pregnancy.

How we make money.

medicalinsurance.co.za is free to use. We never charge South Africans for a comparison or for being introduced to a scheme.

When you choose to get a quote, the scheme you pick may pay us a referral fee. That fee never changes the premium you're quoted, and it never changes where schemes sit in our rankings — those are based on our independent editorial scoring.

If a scheme doesn't pay us at all, we still list them. We'd rather show you the right cover than only the ones paying us.
