Profmed’s vision is to address the healthcare needs of South Africa’s professionals. This is achieved through the tailored and comprehensive design of benefits that suit the specific requirements of professionals. With over 60 years’ experience, Profmed is one of the longest established medical schemes in South Africa but we are as relevant today as we were 60 years ago.
Profmed medical aid scheme offers ten excellent options. You can choose from one of our five Premium options or one of our five Savvy hospital network options. We provide affordable medical cover that is designed for the unique needs of the professional and your particular life stage. Choose a benefit option that suites you or your family and that takes into consideration your personal needs and your financial position.
His story: When the Covid-19 pandemic hit, Dr Chetty’s Durban-based hospital was soon overwhelmed with more patients than beds or equipment. However, this isn’t a tragic story. It’s a tale of a doctor, a team of theatre nurses and staff, and a brand-new-but empty-respiratory ward that a team of South African heroes turned into a Covid-19 ward by volunteering their time. Get ready to feel truly proud to be South African!
