Over the past few years, GEMS has deliberately utilized more than R10 billion in reserves to shield members from higher contribution increases. As a restricted, not-for-profit medical scheme established to serve public service employees, GEMS reinvests all surpluses into improving benefits, service delivery, and access to quality healthcare. GEMS continues to be one of the most affordable medical schemes in South Africa. For a typical public service family, contributions are up to 23% lower than comparable open schemes before subsidy.
