DO YOU HAVE A COVER IN PLACE FOR LIFE THREATENING EMERGENCIES?
Emergencies happen every single day and we have no idea when illness or a serious accident might strike. You must ask yourself what you can do to have more control over the “unplanned” happenings of life.
Statistics published in early 2017 showed that millions of South African’s are not covered by a medical aid or a basic healthcare provider. Out of South Africa’s population of over 54 million people, only 17.4% are covered by a South African medical scheme. This means that only 9.5 million South Africans have access to private medical care while more than 44 million don’t.
Having access to adequate medical cover can drastically improve the quality of life and life expectancy of a person. The millions of South Africans living without medical cover put increasing pressure on the public health system.
You might have read news headlines like “Women dies while waiting 5 hours for ambulance”. The reality of the matter is that there are simply not enough governmental resources to assist the non-covered public in case of life threatening emergencies. Unfortunately, the outcome of the crisis may ultimately lead to patients dying because medical intervention did not take place.
VitalRide Emergency Transport and Evacuation Cover now gives peace of mind to thousands of South African’s. VitalRide ETEC covers individuals and families when they need it most, during life threatening emergencies. What makes this cover unique is the cost of the cover. Taking in consideration the current economical struggle in South Africa, the product was created and made available at the lowest premium possible. The cover focusses on guaranteed national private ambulance response and transportation. When a VitalRide ETEC member finds themselves in a medical emergency, a national call centre number is phoned and a private ambulance will be dispatched to the location, stabilize and transport the patient to the most appropriate hospital facility.
With this innovation South African’s can now rest assure that they will receive guaranteed private ambulance response that will save their lives.
It is simply a cover that you can not afford not to have.
