1. Our legislated mandate• Medical Schemes Act 131 of 1998• Governs us and industry
– Medical schemes– Administrators– Managed care organisations (MCOs)– Healthcare brokers and broker organisations
• Heart of the Act: protecting medical scheme beneficiaries and regulating schemes
– CMS is a Statutory Regulator as opposed to self-, co-, and independent regulator– As we become effective we are constantly being accused of “abuse of power”
4
How the Act protects members• Promote non-discriminatory access to
privately funded healthcare through:– Open enrolment– Community rating– Guaranteed benefits (prescribed minimum benefits/PMBs)
• Promote financial stability and sustainability• Encourage member’s active participation in
scheme affairs• Investigate and resolve complaints as per Act
5
Our revised strategic goals
• Goal 1: Access to good quality medical scheme cover is maximised
• Goal 2: Medical schemes and other regulated entities are properly governed, are responsive to the environment, and beneficiaries are informed and protected
• Goal 3: CMS is responsive to the needs of the environment by being an effective and efficient organisation
• Goal 4: CMS provides influential strategic advice and support for the development and implementation of strategic health policy, including support to the NHI development process with the benefit of regional and international experiences.

2. Highlights for CMS in 2010-2011• Revised strategy
– Mandate has not changed– NHI Green Paper: schemes will continue to exist
side by side NHI although their role may change– Better performance information reporting– 4 strategic goals instead of 7 starting this year
