Who Can Join ?

Corporate Membership

Pula Medical Aid Fund employs a comprehensive discount based pricing model premised on the employer. There are four (4) factors that influence the level of contributions levied on the company. These are:

Benefit Option (Executive, De-luxe , Galaxy, Standard, Flexi) chosen by employee
Employer group size (for De-luxe).
Number of registered dependants per member (dependants are a member’s spouse and or a child or children under the age of 21 years (biological or legally adopted). A child or children over 21 years and not more than 25 years would qualify as special dependants provided they are either studying or mentally/ physically disabled).
Employee’s monthly basic salary

Employees

Workers simply join through their employer by indicating their choice of preferred benefit option in the application form and adding dependents to their accounts by attaching supporting documents (birth certificates, marriage certificates, confirmation letters from school for children above 21 years). Our benefit options range from the most comprehensive (Executive) to the affordable outpatient cover (Flexi) giving employees a wide range of choice.
All employees of an employer (an employer could be: parastatals, institutions, organizations or societies in the private sector, etcetera) qualify.
Dependents of the employees (wife/Husband and children below the age of 21 years and or a member’s child above 21 years with mental or physical disability or still at school) also qualify.
