This Programme is aimed at helping our members who suffer from chronic conditions to receive their Chronic Medication uninterrupted. A chronic condition is a persistent or otherwise long-lasting illness that may be longer than three months or lifelong.
SAMWUMED covers the diagnosis, treatment and care of 26 chronic conditions (PMBs) and additional Non-PMBs depending on the benefit option a member is on.
Members and dependants under the Programme have access to a list of pre-approved medicines, referred to as a basket. They are also allowed to change or add new medicine based on the prescription
