The Namibia Association of Medical Aid Funds (NAMAF) has reported a record N$5.74 billion in claims received by registered medical aid funds by the end of December 2023.
This significant figure continues an upward trend in both the total claimed and benefit amounts over time.
The Fund highlighted the substantial impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the utilisation of elective, or planned, healthcare services.
This impact is evident in the claims received and benefits paid by medical aid funds in 2020, which amounted to approximately N$4.2 billion.
