WATCH | Regulator slams top 5 medical aid companies over pricing

 

JOHANNESBURG - The Council for Medical Schemes is blasting the top 5 medical aid companies.

It says the schemes announced fee increases before they were given the green light.

This is required in terms of a new directive issued in July.

The council says 66 of the 71 schemes complied with the directive.

However, it was ignored by Discovery, Momentum, Medihelp, Bonitas and Bestmed.

The council's Stephen Monamodi explained the process in the video above.
