I have a PMB Chronic condition ( Epilepsy) which requires Meds daily to control Seizures. Up unti 2 months ago the Anglo Medical Scheme paid for the Chronic ea month & supplied the full dose as per the doctors prescription. However for the past 2 months they are only willing to authorise 3 weeks worth of meds. The 1st time i called the medical aid they claimed i was requesting an early refill but they overode the system to supply me the full dose. This month i was told the medical aid is only willing to pay for 60 tablets a month regardless of the script or dosage, this is determed by a MIMS Book????. I have been on the medical aid for 3 years using this same medicaion but this is the first time a MIMS dosage restriciton has happened. Now apparently i have to get a special motivation letter (R1000.00 a consultation to get the letter - medical aid refuses to pay for) and it has to go before a special board for approval. I was accused of taking more medication per day than prescribed & told if the medical aid rejected the motivation they would force me to go onto a diff medication despite the fact that i am fully controlled on this medication. I currently have no medication!!!!! |
