"From Emergency to Injustice: My Shocking Experience with Bankmed"

If I could, I would not even add any star to this review. I haven't even been with this medical aid for 12 months yet, but somehow they have given me enough evidence that I've made a huge mistake to join them. Bankmed has proven inconsistency in their consultants saying things to me a client/patient. I was recently in the trauma unit for a medical emergency and needed admission for immediate treatment. This medical condition can be fatal if not treated. Simphiwe, the call center consultant, saying to me that their non-disclosure team declined my admission due to it being linked to something else that I have a waiting period for, he cannot tell me what it's linked to and he cannot tell me how to resolve this matter. Their process is burdening the patient in getting the help needed to recover or even prevent the condition from becoming deadly. I am ashamed to be a member of this health scheme of such negative credibility. Where is the his financial protection which helps members access healthcare services without facing the full financial burden of treatment. It's all a hidden deception of trickery for suffering individuals. I am disgusted

Reviewer Update
Months later after a generic response saying they will get back to me, still waiting. Bankmed is comforted by the funds they receive without fail from me but their services has yet to be seen. When it comes to my health being in a life or death situation, I would've thought Bankmed would be somehow productive even in the slightest way. I am horrified by their negligence and traumatized by the absence in a positive outcome.

Reviewer Update
I wonder if Bankmed really values their business at all, this is such a slap in the face move to respond to a review where anyone can freely see it, instead of actually sorting out the problem and gaining some kind of respect as a service provider. But by all means, continue to take my money monthly seeing that it's the only one thing Bankmed does well. Loss of dignity is better than loss of money should be the new Motto for Bankmed as they 100% couldn't care less for actual health and wellbeing of those who fund their pockets. Unbelievable and disgusted is way too nice selection of words to describe how I actually feel about this company. Sies
