About Bonitas

Bonitas is one of South Africa's largest open medical schemes, registered with the Council for Medical Schemes and open to anyone — you do not need to belong to a particular employer or profession to join.

Its range spans entry-level network hospital plans, savings plans that add day-to-day benefits, and comprehensive options with wider hospital choice and above-threshold cover. Like every registered scheme, all plans include prescribed minimum benefits.

How to compare Bonitas fairly

Compare the monthly contribution for your exact household — principal member, adult dependants and children are each priced differently, and children usually cost far less than adults.

Check which hospital network the plan uses and whether your preferred hospital is in it. Network plans are cheaper precisely because they restrict where you can be admitted for planned procedures.

Look at day-to-day cover separately from hospital cover: a medical savings account, a defined GP network and chronic medication formularies all change what you actually pay out of pocket.

Factor in waiting periods and any late-joiner penalty if you are over 35 and have not had continuous cover.
