Cape Medical Plan says: Treatment for all Prescribed Minimum Benefit (PMB) conditions is provided by any government/state facility or a CMP-nominated service provider. If you go to any of their Preferred Partners (e.g. Medi-Clinic) etc. - and then ONLY if they tried to get you into a state facility - they will only pay state hospital rates for your PMB treatment. Since the whole point of NHI is to remove the strain from state hospitals and facilities and provide for all patients to go to private facilities, CMP members will be better off with NHI!
