Following the partnership announcement with Netcare and Mediclinic Hospital Groups, we would like to remind our members of the benefits of using our trusted hospital networks. By choosing hospitals within our network, you ensure access to high-quality care at more affordable rates, making the most of your medical aid benefits.

Using Hospital Networks

Members on network options are required to use the designated hospital groups exclusively, with the following exceptions:

• In the event of an emergency, members on a network option may receive care at any hospital group for stabilisation. Once stabilised, they may be transferred or referred to a network hospital without incurring any penalties.
• Members who must travel more than 30 kilometres to find a network hospital are allowed to seek care at a non-network hospital.

Benefits of Using Hospital Networks

Using Sizwe Hosmed hospital networks has advantages for our members, and they include:

• Reduced Out-of-Pocket Costs: Members enjoy discounted rates and avoid unexpected expenses. Our network hospitals have agreed to pre-negotiated fees, ensuring you save on healthcare services.
• Quality Care: Our network hospitals are carefully selected for their high standards of medical expertise, service, and state-of-the-art facilities. Rest assured that you’re in good hands.
• Streamlined Claims: When you use our network hospitals, your claims are processed faster and more efficiently, reducing paperwork and ensuring a hassle-free experience.
• Comprehensive Care: Members maximise their medical aid plans by receiving the full range of benefits available within our network, from general consultations to specialised treatments.
• Access to Specialists: Members get a wide variety of comprehensive medical specialists and services within the network.

We encourage you to take full advantage of these benefits for all your healthcare needs. If you have any questions about which hospitals are part of our network, call our Contact Centre at 0860 100 871 and we will be happy to assist you.
