SAMWUMED Option A

Savings Plan

Flexibility For The Young & Healthy

Option A is ideal for young professionals, individuals, and growing families.

This option combines the flexibility of a Savings Plan with practical day-to-day healthcare benefits. It offers members the freedom to manage routine medical expenses while still enjoying strong overall protection.

Why Choose Option A?

  • 15% Medical Savings Account (MSA)
    Enjoy the ultimate flexibility. 15% of your contributions go into a dedicated savings plan, allowing you to manage and spend your healthcare funds as you wish on GPs, specialists, tests, and acute or over-the-counter medication.
  • Save Your Savings!
    Basic Dental and Optical benefits are paid directly from Risk, meaning you get to keep your MSA savings for your other day-to-day needs.
  • Mental Health Matters
    We know that young professionals face high stress. Your plan includes a dedicated mental health benefit (unlimited if registered on the programme), covering psychologists, psychiatrists, and counsellors.
  • Complete Day-to-Day Freedom
    Use your upfront MSA for the services you actually need, giving you premium access to:
    • Doctors & Specialists: Consultations with GPs and specialists.
    • Pharmacy: Prescribed and over-the-counter medication.
    • Dentistry & Optometry: Capitated preventative and restorative dental care, plus comprehensive optical cover for eye tests, frames, and lenses (paid from Risk, not your savings!).
  • Preventative Care
    Access to free wellness screenings (including diabetes, HIV, and cancer screenings) to catch potential issues early.
  • No Limits on Major Events
    Rest easy knowing your plan comes with an unlimited overall annual limit for hospitalisation at DSP network hospitals.
