Your LA Health broker can give you the best advice about your benefits

LA Health uses brokers to give you advice about the Benefit Option that would best suit your healthcare needs. Your broker can explain to you how your benefits work, what the benefit limits are and what the Scheme won’t pay for. Your broker will also help you when you have any issues with the Scheme.

All LA Health brokers have certificates to show that the Council for Medical Schemes accredits them. You can ask your broker to show you this certificate.

The Scheme pays commission to your broker

If you have appointed one, your broker receives monthly commission payments for their ongoing services to you. These commission payments are limited at levels determined by the Council for Medical Schemes.

What to do if your needs have changed during the year and you now need different cover

During the window period, the Scheme and its brokers will tell you about the different Options and benefits at information sessions, organised by your employer. Please find out about these sessions from your employer or broker, if you have already appointed one.

If you can’t attend one of the information sessions or don’t have access to a broker, you can find information about all the Options and contributions for 2019 on the website at www.lahealth.co.za

For more information, please contact your broker, email us at service@discovery.co.za or call us on 0860 103 933.
