Mzansi Health

“Health cover built around real South African healthcare needs.”

We administer the independently governed Mzansi Health Medical Scheme — helping members access hospital, comprehensive and savings-based cover.

Overview

What Mzansi Health Administrators does

Mzansi Health Administrators runs the day-to-day administration of the Mzansi Health Medical Scheme — a not-for-profit scheme owned by its own members, not by the Mzansi Group, and governed by its own independent board of trustees. Members choose between a Hospital, Comprehensive or Savings-based option depending on how much everyday medical cover they need.

Most members join through their employer or through a Mzansi Advisors financial adviser, and many also add Gap Cover from Mzansi Insure to close the difference between what the scheme pays and what a specialist or hospital actually charges.

What we offer

Four options, one important distinction

Full option detail lives on the Personal section of the site — here's the picture, plus something worth understanding upfront.

For individuals & families

Choose the option that matches how much day-to-day medical cover you need.

  • Hospital Plan & Comprehensive Option
  • Savings-Based Option
  • Chronic & PMB Benefits (included on every option)

For employers

Most members actually join through their employer's group scheme arrangement, coordinated with Mzansi Advisors' employee benefits consultants.

  • Employer group scheme enrolment
  • Coordinated via Mzansi Advisors
We administer the Scheme — we don't own it. The Mzansi Health Medical Scheme is a separate, not-for-profit legal entity owned by its own members and governed by its own independent Board of Trustees. Mzansi Health Administrators (Pty) Ltd runs the scheme's day-to-day operations under contract, but every governance decision belongs to the Trustees, not to Mzansi.
How we fit together

Health cover works better alongside the rest of your plan

  • Gap Cover closes the shortfall. Mzansi Insure's Gap Cover works alongside any Mzansi Health option to cover the difference between what the scheme pays and what a specialist or hospital actually charges.

  • Advisers help you choose the right option. A Mzansi Advisors financial adviser can help you weigh up Hospital, Comprehensive and Savings-Based cover against your health needs and budget.

  • Most members join through an employer. Group scheme enrolment is coordinated with Mzansi Advisors' employee benefits consultants for Corporate & Institutional clients.

  • Staying active counts toward Mzansi Rewards. Gym visits and annual health screenings, tracked through the Mzansi Health app, earn points across the whole Group.
