| Dear Valued Member
RE: SAMWUMED 2023 Monthly Contribution Increases These past three years, have demonstrated that we are indeed a resilient people. The uncertainties that were brought about by Covid-19 and subsequent increase in claims patterns, have called on Schemes to be extra careful, with how members’ contributions and benefits are constructed. However, what has been important to us has been to ensure that you continued to be covered by your medical aid, throughout the period and into the future. In order that we remain competitive in the market, sustainable and offer you comprehensive benefits, we have found it necessary to increase our contribution rates with effect from 1 January 2023. Your new premium for 2023 will be as follows (depending on which Option you are on):
OPTION A 2023 Please click here to access the Option A 2023 contributions. *Please speak to your Employer (Human Resource Department) to find out what subsidy you qualify for*
OPTION B 2023 Please click here to access the Option B 2023 contributions. *Please speak to your Employer (Human Resource Department) to find out what subsidy you qualify for*
The above increases have been submitted to the Council for Medical Schemes (CMS) and the Scheme has tried to ensure they do not exceed a 10% increase as far as possible, across both Options. For more information you can use our web chat service at www.samwumed.org for a quick response or call us on 0860 104 117. We will be glad to be of service to you. P.S. please note it remains your responsibility as a member, to ensure that your service providers submit their claims to the Scheme on time, after rendering services to you. We thank you for your continued support and wish you and yours well for 2023. Sincerely, SAMWUMED Premium Management Department
