As your health care consultants, we would like to welcome you to the Discovery Health Medical Scheme.

One of the most important benefits that your employer offers you is membership to a medical scheme. To try and help you make the right decision, we have put together this summary brochure on the 2012 Discovery Health product to give you a good idea of what benefit options are available and at what cost.

Please take the time to read through all the options and consider what benefits best suit you and your family’s needs. Because we are all unique and have different health care requirements, Discovery Health offers you a range of 19 benefit options to choose from. If you need more information on what each option offers and what it will cost, you can contact the Alexander Forbes Member Support Unit (MSU) for advice.

Making the right decision for you and your family is extremely important. We understand this and are committed to helping you make the most appropriate option selection for 2012.
