Hospital Cover
Hospital cover, unlike a medical aid, covers you for events and needs that don't necessarily have anything to do with your medical expenses. Everyone in their life time has unforeseen circumstances whereby they land up in hospital. A medical aid may not be the best option as the prices are often exorbitant. Hospital cover can range from as little as R100 a month and will cover you for the duration of your time in the hospital (from day 3 onwards).
Hospital cover pays you a daily lump sum and you can choose what you want to do with that money. It's up to you. You can pay for groceries, or pay for unforeseen expenses.
There are many companies who offer both medical aid and hospital cover; however it is often hard to choose the best policy. Ting makes your life much easier because all you have to do is fill in our hospital cover form and you will receive a call back from one or more specialist hospital insurance companies. Ting only deals with reputable hospital cover companies so you just need to sit back and decide which policy makes the most sense for you.
Hospital costs could be very expensive which is why hospital insurance is worth while looking into.
Hospital Insurance is there to provide a daily cash benefit for each and every day you are hospitalized. A hospital plan is the best option if you are looking for complete health cover for major medical expenses at an affordable fixed monthly price.
Remember hospital insurance, hospital cover and hospital plans are not medical aids.
