Covid-19 Benefits

As Covid-19 infections are increasing in South Africa, more members are asking us how the Scheme is funding treatment for Covid-19 in and out of hospital. To answer this, we have published the AMS Covid-19 WHO Outbreak Benefit infographic, and more information, on our specialised Covid-19 page on www.angloms.co.za. The Covid-19 benefit covers the out-of-hospital management and appropriate supportive treatment of global WHO-recognised disease outbreaks and out-of-hospital healthcare services related to Covid-19. This benefit offers funding for the Prescribed Minimum Benefits (PMB) as well as additional cover and does not affect a member’s day-to-day benefits, as long as it meets the Scheme’s benefit entry criteria.
