The long - term effects of lifestyle diseases on productivity and capital can accumulate to unexpected risk and expense to a Medical Aid and the employer company.
To combat the negative spin offs of obesity, high cholesterol, hypertension, diabetes and cardiac disease, NMC has introduced a free of charge Wellness Program aimed at identifying and decreasing the above mentioned risk.

This program promotes the proactive dynamic process whereby the member (Individual Healthy lifestyle Program) and the member group (Healthy Corporate Program) through the evaluation, recommendation and monitoring by the health coordinator, Biokineticist, and Dietician are able to become involved in their own quality, wellness lifestyle choices.

"QUIT THE SMOKE" CAMPAIGN

If you are a smoker you definitely have heard the saying: "Smoking is bad for you! Why don't you stop?" Easier said than done…right?

At NMC we know how difficult it is to quit the smoking habit on your own. This year NMC offers all our clients the opportunity to join the "QUIT the SMOKE" campaign

Why did NMC start this campaign?

  • Cigarette smoking is responsible for one-third of all deaths from heart disease and cancer.
  • Smoking is a risk factor for Osteoporosis (reduced bone density)
  • Smoking has a negative impact on the whole body. These illnesses present themselves as cataracts, hearing loss, Psoriasis (a skin condition), tooth decay, discolored fingers and even premature wrinkling.

In light of the above, Methealth Namibia Administrators has joined forces with selected pharmacies and GlaxoSmithKline, a pharmaceutical company. "QUIT the SMOKE" campaign will be exclusively for NMC members, which aims to assist members to stop smoking with or without the aid of a new treatment that is now available on prescription from your doctor. So if you are smoking and have tried to quit before, then this campaign can be one of your new year's resolutions.

If you have made the decision to "QUIT the SMOKE", complete the form, make an appointment with your doctor and register on the program at NMC, by faxing the signed form back to NMC.

Once you have successfully completed the "QUIT the SMOKE" program, you can win in more than one way. Your first prize is that your health has improved drastically AND secondly you stand a chance to WIN one of three PRIZES to the value of N$5,000.
