Save with Provider Choice

You can save with Provider Choice. When you choose to use Momentum Medical Scheme’s Associated providers, you can save up to R1 000 on your monthly contributions.

Important to know

When choosing Associated hospital provider

What happens if I don't use one of the Associated hospitals?

If you choose Associated hospitals as your preferred provider for Major Medical benefits and do not use one of the Associated hospitals, a 30% co-payment will apply on the hospital account. Momentum Medical Scheme will be responsible for 70% of the negotiated tariff, provided authorisation would have been granted according to the rules of the Scheme.

When choosing Associated chronic provider

What happens if I don't use one of the Associated GPs?

If you choose Associated chronic provider, you'll have to obtain any chronic prescription from an Associated GP and chronic medication from Medipost, subject to an entry-level formulary. If you choose to obtain your chronic prescription from a non-Associated GP, the Scheme will pay 50% of the Momentum Medical Scheme Rate for the consultation.
What happens if I don't obtain chronic medication from Medipost?

Similarly, if you choose to obtain your chronic medication from a pharmacy other than Medipost, the Scheme will pay only 50% of the formulary price.

When changing provider choice selected

When can I make changes to my choice of healthcare providers?

Changes to the choice of healthcare providers can only be exercised when option changes are done at the end of every year, to be effective from 1 January. Regardless of the choice of provider, the benefits available will remain the same.
