Cimas Health Group (Pvt) Ltd, a leading healthcare organisation in Zimbabwe, is proud to announce a ground-breaking acquisition of the Highlands Wellness Group to address the critical issue of mental health and drug and substance abuse in the country.
This acquisition is aimed at providing comprehensive coverage for alcohol and drug rehabilitation services to Cimas medical aid members, to tackle this pressing social challenge.
The alarming increase in cases of alcohol and substance abuse in Zimbabwe, particularly during the challenging period of the COVID-19 pandemic, has highlighted the urgent need for accessible and effective rehabilitation services.
However, the high costs associated with such treatments have presented a significant barrier for individuals seeking recovery.
Recognising the gravity of this issue, Cimas Medical Aid Society has taken a progressive step by extending coverage for alcohol and drug rehabilitation services to its members.
Through this strategic acquisition of Highlands Wellness Group, a renowned and trusted provider of mental health and rehabilitation services, Cimas aims to alleviate the financial burden faced by individuals seeking help and improve their chances of successful recovery.
By accessing specialised alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs offered by Highlands Wellness Group, Cimas members will benefit from evidence-based therapies, counselling, and a supportive environment that promotes holistic recovery and long-term sobriety.
By covering the costs of these services, Cimas Medical Aid Society is removing a significant barrier and promoting a more inclusive approach to healthcare.
Tinotenda Mushapaidze, Managing Director of Cimas, emphasised the importance of rehabilitation and highlighted Cimas’s commitment to delivering global standard health and wellness solutions for its members.
Mushapaidze also shared their efforts in raising awareness through their anti-drug and substance abuse campaign, featuring popular musicians such as Asaph and Holyten, with the message, “It’s Never Too Late. Say No to Drugs.”
As the acquisition of Highlands Wellness Group takes effect, individuals struggling with alcohol and drug addiction can now access the vital support they need to embark on the path to recovery.
By combining resources, expertise, and a shared commitment to fighting drug and substance abuse, this collaboration is poised to make a tangible difference in the lives of affected individuals and contribute to a healthier society.
