Motherhood and pregnancy are times of great anticipation and joy. Each experience is unique but what is probably high on the agenda is that you have a trouble-free pregnancy, a healthy baby and also know and anticipate the costs involved for pre-natal check-ups and the birth. “Choosing the right medical aid is critical in ensuring the healthcare needs of you and your loved ones are taken care of. More so, when you’re looking at expanding your family. For those who are on a medical scheme or wish to join one, here are some important points to consider when you fall pregnant,” says Lee Callakopen, Principal Officer of Bonitas Medical Fund.
Remember that pre-authorisation is needed for the delivery of the baby, which can usually be done from 20 weeks onwards. Pre-authorisation will help you understand the benefits you have available on your plan and ensure that you are aware of what is covered. Bonitas members can also register for the Bonitas baby bag once pre-authorisation is obtained. The baby bag is packed with of useful goodies for the baby to make parenthood a little easier.
When do you advise the medical aid that your baby has been born and needs to be added onto your medical aid?
For our members, the baby needs to be registered within 30 days from the date of birth to ensure there is no break in cover and that your child will be covered from the first day of life.
Are there Designated Service Providers (DSPs) in terms of gynaes and hospitals for childbirth?
We strongly advise members to use DSPs to get maximum value and avoid co-payments. We agree special rates with these providers, which are covered within a member’s benefits, so that they can focus on taking care of their health and wellbeing during pregnancy.
What is normally covered in the maternity benefit?
This differs from scheme to scheme and according to the plan you are on. Bonitas pays for up to 12 maternity consultations (paid for from a separate benefit), an amniocentesis, antenatal classes, 2x 2D ultrasounds and the delivery. In addition, there are additional benefits such as new-born hearing screening tests and childhood vaccinations.
Does Bonitas cover the cost of a Caesarian birth?
Yes, medically necessary Caesarians are covered on all plans.
Some expectant mothers do prefer home births – is this covered?
Yes, the cost for a home delivery is covered.
Are all the childhood vaccinations covered by Bonitas and if so, are there any conditions attached ie where the vaccinations should be done?
Vaccines are covered as per the EPI schedule on immunisation. Please note this benefit is available on specific plans. The vaccines can be done at any clinic or pharmacy. If an administration fee is charged by these providers, it will be paid from your savings or day-to-day benefits.
The Bonitas Babyline – a dedicated children’s health advice line
In 2016, Bonitas introduced Babyline – a 24-hour children’s health advice line manned by paediatric trained registered nurses. They are on the other side of the phone to assist with any parental concerns, vaccination schedules and health related issues, 24/7, 365 days of the year. This is available for children under 3 years old.
Joining a medical scheme when you are already pregnantIt is very common for women to apply to join a medical aid scheme when they fall pregnant. But according to the Medical Schemes Act 131 of 1998, medical aid schemes are entitled to impose a 12-month condition specific waiting period for any pre-existing medical condition, such as pregnancy. These waiting periods are imposed to protect the interests of current members of the scheme. When a waiting period is applied to pregnancy, then the pregnancy and birth will not be covered but your baby will be covered from the first day of life – if you register him/her with your medical aid within 30 days. This will allow you to ensure the healthcare needs of your child will be covered.
Bonitas has different plans and expectant mothers will be able to select the one most suitable for their needs.
Informing the medical aid of your pregnancy
Prospective members need to inform their medical aid upon application or within 30 days after you complete the application.
What is the policy regarding a member joining Bonitas when they are pregnant? What sort of cover can they expect, if any?
The pregnancy would be considered pre-existing and therefore not covered. The baby will be covered if registered within 30 days post-delivery.
What happens if someone signs up for medical aid not realising they are already pregnant? At what point is cover allowed?
Underwriting still applies. But if they are unaware that you are pregnant then it cannot be pre-existing. However, before cover is granted the timing and the specific circumstances regarding your pregnancy are investigated.
Does the scheme pay if there are complications in the pregnancy?
In the event of complications during the pregnancy such as pre-eclampsia, considered a PMB, this will be covered.
I think this entire point can be dropped as it is a repeat of a previous question above.
If you are considering starting a family then it is recommended that you register yourself on a medical aid straight away. This means that when you do fall pregnant, providing the waiting period is over, your pregnancy and birth will be covered and all you have to worry about is staying healthy and taking care of your bundle of joy.

You're too busy for the gym but long for something more exciting than that same old fitness DVD you've been sweating to for months. If only you could take a rocking class right where you are. The tech gods are on it! With just a Wi-Fi connection, a laptop (or tablet or smart TV) and a toning tool or two, you can now plug into cutting-edge workoutsfor a small fee, of course. We exercised our way through a dozen streaming sites and narrowed them down to our five favorites. Your fitness plan B just got better.
Physique 57
Cost: $57 a month or $5 to $10 per class; physique57.com
Best for: Fans of barre and Pilates mat classes.
What it is: Each of the 15 workoutsthere's even one with Health's cover girl Erin Andrews!mimics a traditional barre class, using micro movements to sculpt and lengthen muscles. While in-studio classes at this boutique chain can cost up to $36 a pop, you can rent content for 48 hours for a fraction of that price. (If you pay for the month, you have unlimited access for 31 days.)
Why we love it: Peppy instructors and fast-paced workouts hold your attention. "I was pushing myself the way I do in a traditional gym class but didn't feel the usual worry about how I looked," a reviewer of the Thigh and Seat Booster and Arm and Ab Booster workouts noted. Bonus: You don't need a lot of space or equipmenttypically dumbbells, an exercise ball and a chair.
Keep in mind: Instructors run through moves quickly, so if you're a barre newbie, you may find yourself hitting rewind a lot.
Crunch live
Cost: $10 a month; crunchlive.com
Best for: Gym diehards who like to try new classes.
What it is: Joining this sitewhich features 33 of the chain's most popular workoutsis basically like having a Crunch membership, but without the crowds. Choose between standard 30-minute sessions or quickie 15-minute ones, all taught by some of Crunch's elite instructors (think Michelle Opperman and Marc Santa Maria). What's more, you can search by category, teacher, duration or class name, as well as place videos into a "favorites" section, making it a snap to find your top-rated toning sessions.
Why we love it: While there's no substitute for being in an actual class, our reviewers thought this service came close. "I really enjoyed the Ab Attack class," one tester said. "It incorporated yoga poses and stretching in the last quarter, which was a nice addition and different from other ab workouts I've done." Thrill seekers will like that the flat monthly fee encourages experimentation.
RELATED: 24 Fat-Burning Ab Exercises
Keep in mind: Your regular Crunch gym membership doesn't include these streaming classes. Free trials are available.
Udaya Yoga
Cost: $12 a month or $5 per class; udaya.com
Best for: Yoga enthusiasts who want to go deep into poses or just get a quick fix.
What it is: Subscribers to this strictly yoga site not only have access to an online video library but also get to try five new yoga classes a week. The sessionsin a variety of levelsrange in focus from body-part-specific moves (such as quad openers) to skills (like perfecting Wheel pose) to traditional sequences. Search by class length, difficulty, challenges or style to find the right flow for you.
Why we love it: The step-by-step tutorials make it simple to follow along. "Even if you aren't looking at your computer, you know what's going on and can keep up," one tester raved. The breathtaking scenery of the outdoor classes adds an extra dose of calm. Om yeah!
RELATED: Which Type of Yoga Is Best for You?
Keep in mind: Some of the workouts are pretty tough. Our testers appreciated that the yogis suggest other sessions to help master the basic poses. Free trials are available.
AKT inMotion
Cost: $8 per class; aktinmotion.com
Best for: Dance lovers who want a 360-degree workout.
What it is: Wish you could take a class with a celebrity trainer? Here's your chance. AKT inMotion streaming workouts are the brainchild of Anna Kaiser, trainer to A-listers like Kelly Ripa and Shakira. Each 10-minute video serves up Kaiser's signature mix of cardio, strength training and stretching; you get targeted workouts (upper and lower body and core) as well as dance steps to boost your heart rate.
Why we love it: "At first I thought, 10 minutes? That's nothing. But I was really sweating a few minutes into it," said a tester of the Upper Body Workout, who admitted she was grateful for the on-screen countdown clock. Added our Dance Cardio Workout guinea pig: "Anna's energy was contagiousI did this workout first thing in the morning and felt completely revved up."
Keep in mind: Have a range of weights on hand because these intense moves will fatigue your limbs quickly. "I grabbed only 5- and 8-pound weights," said one reviewer, "but then there were a lot of pulsing movements and I had to go running for 3-pounders."
DailyBurn
Cost: $10 a month; dailyburn.com
Best for: Anyone looking for comprehensive training plans (it offers 14) as opposed to one-off classes.
What it is: After you answer a few questions (height, weight, activity level, what type of workouts you like), DailyBurna video-content partner of Health.comwill suggest plans that run the gamut from dance to kettlebells . For each program, you find out the trainer and the length of an individual session, as well as what the overall series is and who the workout is best for.
Why we love it: The selection is incredibly diverse, and the workouts deliver results. "It's often hard to find online classes that are tough but not ridiculous," said a reviewer of Power, Intervals and Metcon1. "These are at just the right level, where I feel challenged but not so much that I can't do the workout." Another plus: the Inferno HR series. It's HIIT-style and allows you to track your heart rate on screen in real time, as long as you have a heart rate monitor and download the app to your phone or tablet.
Keep in mind: The hard-core workouts come chock-full of plyometric moveslike jumping lunges. If you have bad knees, you may want to steer clear. You can try it free for 30 days.
