Not good at all.

All looks and sounds good before you get the service. Today i needed to take my wife to a doctor due to high fever, bursting headache ect. I waited 2 hours for authorization. I paid it out of my pocket. My concern is what if it is a big emergency and have to wait for them ... not a chance i will take on my family's life.

I contacted Affinity Health this morning to try and change my plan

I contacted Affinity Health this morning to try and change my plan. I got such incredible service from Amandla Sibiya. We were able to find a plan that best suits my budget and not compromise on the cover I need for myself and my kids. I've been with Affinity Health for a very long time and have never had any negative experiences! Really appreciate Amandla's kindness and willingness to help. 🙏🏽
