If they cannot afford medical aid then in all reality they cannot afford to pay for private medical services. This means having to rely on the public health system - government clinics and hospitals. The cost of staying in a private hospital in South Africa for just one night is often more expensive than paying an average medical aid plan monthly premium.
Most people just don't have the cash or credit to afford private health services without a medical aid. The odd doctor may be sympathetic and offer free services but no private hospital will negotiate if a patient does not have medical aid or cash in hand. At most, they will sponsor you a trip to the nearest public hospital.
