One cannot activate the vitality food benefit for shopping at woolworths unless I upgrade my cover with Discovery to a package with medical savings, I find this shocking.
I am a healthy, active and young individual, I choose to have hospital cover alone as I rarely if ever go to the doctor (or would make use of a medical saving account), I am content with having hospital cover for big operations or accidents and am in a financial position to cover my own day to day expenses.
I choose to shop at woolworths because of their outstanding quality and commitment to sustainable food sourcing. Pick n pay is hardly cheaper and their sustainability practices leave a lot to be desired.
I should not be excluded from the benefit based on some POORLY done statistical analysis that stipulates I am not wealthy enough to shop at woolworths because I choose not to have day to day cover on my medical aid.
Pretty blatant discrimination actually!
