Common sense!
Can the Road Accident Fund please tell us where members of medical aids can buy fuel for R 2 less per litre if they will not be paying our medical expenses if we are in an accident?
Why must the govt pay private healthcare a cent for anything!
Well then people with medical aid should be exempt from the terrific recovered from the petrol price for the Road accident fund surely
Life and disability covers are next
Only feel sorry for Africans signing up with them.
then petrol should be cheaper for people with medical aid.
Bathong RAF!!! Discovery isn’t RAF
