Medical aid
Contact the medical aid directly with the death certificate
Some steps differ by region inside the country.
Where
The medical scheme directly, with the death certificate.
How
Find the membership number on their medical aid card, a recent statement, or the debit order reference.
Phone the scheme and report the death so contributions stop and dependants are handled correctly.
Ask whether dependants can continue on the scheme as members, they usually can, but there is a time limit.
Request a final statement and settle or claim back any balance.
What to bring
A certified copy of the death certificate
The membership number from a card, statement, or debit order
Your ID
Timing
Report within the first week or two. Dependant continuation usually has a strict window.
