Although the percentage of individuals covered by medical aid schemes increased by only 0,4 percentage points since 2002, almost a million more individuals were covered by medical aid schemes in 2011 compared to 2002. Nearly a quarter (22,8%) of South African households had at least one member who belonged to a medical aid scheme.

While almost 69,7% of the white population belonged to some medical scheme, only 41,1% of the Indian/Asian, 20,3% of the coloured and 8,9% of the black African population groups were covered by such schemes at the time the survey was conducted in 2011. Figure 14 reveals that Western Cape (25,1%) and Gauteng (23,9%) contained the highest percentage of medical aid members while Limpopo (7,2%) and Eastern Cape (11,1%) had the lowest proportion of medical aid membership. Noticeable drops in the percentage of medical aid members are observed in all provinces between 2002 and 2011 except Western Cape and Northern Cape where slight increases occurred.

Statistics South Africa 18 P0318 Figure 14: Percentage of individuals who are members of medical aid schemes per province, 2009- 2011 5.3 Teenage pregnancy It is clear from Figure 15 that the prevalence of pregnancy increases with age and that nineteen-year-old girls were much more likely than thirteen-year-old girls to have been pregnant (11,5% compared to less than 0,2% in 2011). About 4,5% of all females in the age group 13–19 years were reported to be pregnant during the reference period. These figures are consistent with results obtained in 2009 and 2010 and are useful in explaining the observation in Figure 3 that just over 2% of girls between the ages 7 and 24 years who were not attending any educational institution blamed pregnancy for dropping out of school.
