Introducing Online Doctor Consultations FREE to all South Africans
In partnership with Vodacom, we have developed a way to offer online doctor consultations to all South Africans during the COVID-19 outbreak. This fantastic virtual tool is useful for helping to identify people who need medical referral for COVID-19 screening and testing. In this way, we are helping to limit the spread of the virus in consulting rooms, as well as protect doctors who are providing care to patients with COVID-19.
Protecting you and your family with isolation hotels
We've partnered with major hotel groups so that you have a safe space to isolate and recover if you test positive for the COVID-19 virus. This alternative to home-based isolation also offers tailored medical support including access to nursing care, supportive over-the-counter medicine and online doctor consultations, where required.
Comprehensive set of measures to assist healthcare professionals
Discovery Health and Discovery Health Medical Scheme have developed a comprehensive combined response to assist healthcare professionals during the COVID-19 outbreak. Discovery Healthy Company, provides online emotional, legal and financial wellbeing assistance. Healthcare Professionals who are members of the medical scheme receive full funding for influenza vaccinations.
Assisting members with COVID-19 through the WHO Global Outbreak Benefit
As the largest open medical scheme in the country, Discovery Health Medical Scheme has developed the WHO Global Outbreak Benefit aimed at responding to global health emergencies such as the COVID-19 virus. This new benefit, which is immediately accessible to members, provides funding in full from the Scheme's risk pools, to cover the tests and treatment in the case of a confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis.
Client support and advice
To ensure that our valued members, especially those in vulnerable positions, such as owners of small and medium - sized businesses, can keep their Discovery products in place at a time when you need them most, we've introduced a range of options aimed to support the sustainability of your cover.
