You, as a member of a medical scheme, may assume that if you contract a life-threatening illness, you are entitled to the latest top-of-the-range treatments, especially if your condition is a prescribed minimum benefit. But recent rulings by the Council for Medical Schemes have cast doubt on schemes’ obligation to provide high-cost specialised medicines, even when the medical reasons for using these drugs are compelling. Personal Finance reports on what the council ruled and what this means for you, the medical scheme member.
Also in our weekend print edition:
* Should you be running scared of the new record levels being set every day on the JSE?
* Most unit trust investors don’t have to do much about dividends tax.
* Your bank’s response to the launch of a new personal financial management tool designed to give you mastery over your money.
Personal Finance is published every Saturday in the Pretoria News Weekend, the Saturday Star, The Independent on Saturday and the Weekend Argus.
