"A positive MSA refers to the ‘cash’ balance and does not include the upfront MSA you get at the start of the calendar year. We will pay your total medical scheme contribution from your MSA, and we will adjust your MSA balance accordingly.
"You may not choose to partially pay for your contributions from your MSA balance."
Members can apply for the concession through the online portal where they'll also find an option for concessions on their Vitality Premiums.
