The Latest News: 26/11/2020
As we all begin to wind down to the end of 2020, after an especially challenging year, it seems apt that we pause to reflect on some of the “good news” stories that have emerged.
Despite the rapid onset of both COVID-19 and the extended lockdown HEALTH SQUARED certainly proved its mettle by:
- Being one of the first Medical Schemes to cover COVID-19 testing even if the tests came back negative.
- Providing our members with free face masks to ensure their health and safety.
- Offering payment relief to our members during lockdown.
- Supporting our members with free wellbeing benefits to help them cope during these stressful times.
- Assisting many small businesses through the Small Business Relief Fund.
- Being one of the few Medical Schemes to offer a ZERO percent increase on certain of our options, without compromising on our members’ benefits.
It is these efforts, and partnering with various associations that have enabled us to live up to our ethos of: preparing for today, in order to prosper tomorrow.
To join a Medical Scheme that places people above profits, and ensures that you are covered from every angle, go to www.healthsquared.co.za or call 021 918 6210.
We are looking forward to an even more successful and prosperous 2021, where collectively we will continue to expand and thrive.
Over the last several months, Printing SA together with our partners Africa Print has hosted several online webinars. We also saw the introduction of FESPA’s Coffee Break Webinars which were short and insightful, and perfect to squeeze into your day with a cup of coffee.
The great thing about these webinars is that you can enjoy them from the comfort of your home or office, but what if you were unable to watch them live? Well, that’s no problem at all!
Both Africa Print and FESPA have made their webinars available online letting you catch up with industry-leading hosts all discussing the latest industry trends and concerns.
