Cimas has been Zimbabwe’s leading medical aid society for over 75 years now, preferred by corporates and families since 1945. As a medical aid that has stood the test of time, all our members are reassured through the trust and security of being looked after by a society that is professional, approachable and above all, a society whose primary care and concern is for its members.
Prior to the Second World War in 1939, discussions were held in the then Salisbury Chambers of Commerce and Industry on the need for some form of medical aid insurance for employees in the private sector.
The municipalities of the two major towns of Salisbury (Harare) and Bulawayo had also introduced medical aid benefit funds. The Chambers of Commerce and Industry felt there was a need for a medical aid society, or mutual benefit fund, that catered for the employees in the private sector as well. The advent of the Second World War delayed the start of the operations of the proposed society until the 1st of October 1945, when the Commercial and Industrial Medical Aid Society opened its doors for business, and has been going and growing stronger every year since.
The Cimas Board is made up of eminent individuals across a wide range of expertise in the country. These bring with them a wealth of experience and knowledge from their respective fields. They are a significant indicator of who we are, aside from our operations, and the ethos we stand for.
Through our leadership, we are trusted for careful and considered management of the healthcare, lifestyle and wellness of our community. We perform at the highest level and lead by example.
We are first and foremost a team. Together, we are empowered as a team to perform and be held responsible for our service delivery.
To be creative is to invent and innovate. It is to be on the leading edge in the delivery of products that always exceed our customer expectations and pioneer our delivery of solutions.
Being proactive in our approach is to think look and act ahead. Action is the ingredient that fuels our ideas and keeps us leading the way.
We treat each other and all our members with the utmost compassion, caring and understanding, in every aspect of our relationships and at every personal touchpoint. Above all, we are human.
We are people of consequence. Our opinions, ideas and actions matter, where we always consider and respect those of other people, and are cognizant, accountable, and responsible for our role within our company, and our community.
We are passionate about what we do here. Every effort and every task we undertake creates a real, positive and tangible difference in our community. For us, that makes all the difference.
As we perform to the greatest of our abilities, we reach and surpass all goals and objectives. We achieve more than satisfaction, more than happiness – We achieve more than it all put together.
