Agreement with MEDI-CLINIC
We have entered into a cooperation agreement with the Medi-Clinic group of companies who have created what that is known as Medi-Clinic Senior, which places additional benefits at the disposal of members. The following information explaining benefits of the agreement is taken from the Medi-Clinic website.
What is Medi-Clinic Senior?
As we grow older, we become more health conscious. We focus more on quality time with friends and family and pursue activities for which we might not have had the time before. Because Medi-Clinic would like to enrich your quality of life, we have developed the Medi-Clinic Senior programme specifically focusing on people who are 60 years and older.

Vision and spectacles
We have arrangements with nationally represented companies like Spec-Savers who provide visionary aids at specially negotiated prices country wide. There is even a service with which, by prior arrangement, we can organize for mobile testing facilities to visit retirement villages, thereby enabling members to have the services brought to them on a specific day.
Members making use of this facility are requested to go about it as follows:
- Pay for the service in cash.
- Obtain proof of expenditure and any necessary documentation.
- Submit this documentation to the Medical Aid for a refund.
Please note that requesting a discount to be processed in a claims submission to Spectra-med will disqualify you for the discount. The object is to try and keep claims within the Medical Aid limits and avoid having to make a co-payment.
Hearing Aids
A negotiated scheme with Impact Hearing gives members a R750-00 discount on the purchase of one of 4 well-known makes of hearing aids. Even if there is no direct Impact Hearing consultancy in your area, you can get the discount - in the form of a refund from Impact Hearing - by purchasing one of these makes of hearing aids and providing proof of purchase to Impact Hearing.
