Why choose Bonitas?
As a non-profit organisation that exists solely for the benefit of our members and their beneficiaries, we take our responsibility very seriously and always act in your best interest, keeping value-for-money and service delivery top priorities.
​
Value for money
​
We understand that times can be tough. That’s why our most important consideration when designing and pricing plans is how to increase the value of what you’re getting, while keeping costs as low as possible. Go ahead and do a comparison of benefits versus costs with any of our competitors.
​
4th child and subsequent children free
​
We know how expensive a big family can be. That’s why, with us, if you have more than 3 children, you can have the additional children’s medical cover for free.
​
Benefits that give you more
Our supplementary benefits ensure you’re taken care of when you really need it, be it during a pregnancy, oncology or emergency care. Then there are also extra services you can take advantage of with our B-Smart products, like Dial-a-Teacher, Trauma Counselling and Personal Health Advisor.
​
Financially stable
To ensure that medical schemes can pay out their members’ claims, the law requires them to have a solvency ratio of 25%. Bonitas has a ratio of 35.5%. Compare that to any other scheme and you’ll see why so many South Africans have trusted us with their healthcare.
​
Over 30 years experience
Having opened our doors in 1982, we’ve gained more than 30 years worth of valuable experience and insights, translating all that knowledge into ways of saving you money and looking after you the best way we can.
​
Trusted by some very big names
You know you’re in good company if large corporate organisations including BHP Billiton, Eskom and Telkom cover their employees with us. Over 50% of our memberships come from companies like these.
​
Excellent customer service
From answering your questions to processing claims, our team works hard to get your matters resolved quickly and efficiently. With the help of our administration partner, Medscheme, you can rest assured you’re in good hands.
​
Students pay child rates
Students under the age of 24 only pay child rates, making it more affordable during those formative years to have medical cover.
​
90% of our claims are paid back
This rate far exceeds the percentage that other schemes pay back. Go ahead and compare.
​
2nd largest medical scheme in SA
Over 650 000 members and their beneficiaries covered by Bonitas, we are the 2nd largest open medical scheme in the country.
​
Largest national GP network
To help your Rand go further, we’ve negotiated with over 5 400 doctors, nationwide, so that you don’t have to contribute a co-payment to your medical bill. With our network search tool, a network GP near you is easy to find.
​
We’re for all South Africans
Whether you earn a living as a construction worker, a receptionist or as the CEO of a Fortune 500 company, we have a plan that suits your specific needs. Our carefully designed plans consider people with different sized families and pay cheques.
