The MSA belongs to the member, and unused funds accumulate yearly. 💙 Furthermore, it can be transferred to another savings type plan. If a member resigns from a savings-type plan, any unused funds will be refunded to the member after four months. 💙 In the case of the Sizwe Hosmed Access Saver Plan, the Scheme will cover the following out-of-hospital benefits, meaning they will not be drawn from the member's MSA account.

Highest Praise. I have never grown tired of praising them. To date, I have never had any unused funds from my medical aid at the end of the year. They have been consistent, even during a year when I underwent two surgeries, and my son underwent one. We were both hospitalized a total of ten times. I am grateful that Sizwe Hosmed made the financial aspect of our medical crises the least stressful. - Amber Yates
Excellent Medical Scheme.
Sizwe Hosmed is an excellent medical scheme, of which I became a member on February 22. Our benefits start date was March 1st, 22. Later, we registered for their Bambino care program.
Finally, my partner received a call from Sizwe Hosmed informing her that our application had been approved and that she could consult with a gynecologist. - Steve Sharpe
Happy Member.
Every time my son was hospitalized while enrolled with Sizwe Hosmed, they provided coverage that exceeded my expectations. I am grateful, as private medical care can be quite expensive. - Bethany Welch
