Cancel Fedhealth: Easy Method
What is Fedhealth
Overview
Fedhealth is a South African medical scheme that provides private medical aid products and member services. It is headquartered in Johannesburg and operates under South African healthcare and regulatory frameworks.
Presence in New Zealand
Fedhealth does not operate in New Zealand and has no New Zealand branch or local plans. New Zealand residents cannot sign up for Fedhealth as a local provider.
How to cancel Fedhealth
If you are leaving an employer-sponsored scheme
- Contact your employer or payroll/HR team to confirm whether the Fedhealth membership is employer-funded and how to terminate it.
- Request written confirmation from your employer that they will cancel or stop contributions on the effective date.
If you are a direct member (international context)
- Contact Fedhealth via their official website contact form or official member email; use Fedhealth website.
- Provide your membership number, full name, ID/passport number, desired cancellation date and a clear statement requesting cancellation.
- Ask for written confirmation of cancellation and a final statement detailing any outstanding charges or refunds.
- Stop any automatic payments only after you have confirmation of cancellation to avoid missed premiums or reinstatement issues.
What happens when you cancel
Access to services
When a membership is cancelled, entitlement to Fedhealth services and benefits will usually end on the cancellation effective date stated by the scheme.
Renewals and waiting periods
Cancelling one plan and later joining another insurer can trigger waiting periods for some benefits. Check prospective insurers in New Zealand for their pre-existing condition and waiting period rules.
Data and records
Fedhealth will retain member records in accordance with its data-retention policies and applicable South African law. Request a copy of any personal information you need before cancellation.
Will I get a refund?
General refund policy
Refunds after cancellation depend on scheme rules and payment timing. Many medical schemes do not refund premiums for past cover but may adjust for overpayments.
Common exceptions
- Pro-rata refunds for premiums paid in advance may be possible in some cases.
- Refunds are more likely for administrative errors, duplicate payments, or cancelled direct debits.
- If your employer paid premiums, any employer refund rules may apply; coordinate with HR.

Assuming automatic cancellation
One frequent mistake is assuming coverage stops automatically when leaving an employer. Always get written confirmation that the scheme has cancelled your membership.
