Sedmed

SEDMED is a medical scheme that provides medical aid benefits specifically and exclusively for individuals (and their registered / qualifying dependants) who are in the regular and full time employment of the Seventh-day Adventist Church in the Republic of South Africa, Namibia and Lesotho, and those who are entitled to enjoy SAU pension benefits after having retired from the employ of the organisation.

We are required to function within the provisions of the Medical Schemes Act and Regulations of South Africa (131 of 1998, as amended) and within the scope of the registered SEDMED Rules, but we aim to do so with fairness, compassion and consistency, whilst striving to provide the best possible benefits at affordable contribution rates.

SEDMED enjoys Council for Medical Schemes (CMS) accreditation as a compliant self-administered medical scheme

Membership

SEDMED also provides benefits to the members' immediate dependants registered with SEDMED.

Benefits & Cover

If required, accounts must be paid in full by the member and submitted together with receipts to SEDMED for processing

Members are encouraged not to claim for non-essential medical services or products, and to manage their medical expenses as best they can in order to curtail expenses as far as possible, so that contributions may remain as low as possible.

Whistleblower Reporting

Sedmed is committed to maintaining the highest standards of ethical conduct, transparency, and accountability. We encourage all stakeholders—including members, employees, service providers, and the public—to report any concerns or suspicions of unethical, fraudulent, or illegal activities related to the operations of the Scheme.

If you are aware of any misconduct, abuse of power, financial irregularities, or conflicts of interest, you can report these anonymously and confidentially.

Email your report to:

All reports will be treated with strict confidentiality. Sedmed guarantees that no whistleblower acting in good faith will suffer any form of retaliation or victimisation. We value your courage and your role in protecting the integrity of the Scheme.

This website contains a summary of the benefits offered by SEDMED. It does not replace the registered rules of the Fund, but attempts to summarise important information. Therefore, should a dispute arise, the rules of the Fund will apply, and not this website.

This is ultimately your medical fund and therefore you need to know how it operates, how to utilise it responsibly and how you can benefit from it. Please refer to your membership guide and this website to obtain information about your overall health care benefits.
