Business Strategy
Affordable healthcare that keeps your workforce moving.
Doc24 gives employees easier access to everyday healthcare, while helping employers reduce the disruption that often comes with getting medical care. From just R49 per employee per month, staff can consult a qualified doctor online, in their home language, without leaving work to travel or queue at a clinic. Employees benefit from convenient access to prescriptions, valid sick notes and referrals when needed, while employers benefit from a practical, affordable health benefit that can support earlier care, reduce unnecessary time away from work and show employees that their wellbeing matters.
