CLAIM DECLINED WITHOUT ANY REASON

I am a member of Bestmed Medical Aid, Beat 2 Network. I need to undergo an operation that has been declined by Bestmed. Despite my doctor submitting a motivational letter, the request has still been denied. I asked to speak with someone who can explain the reason for the refusal, but I was told that no one is able to provide an explanation.

 Dear Anna van Zyl  Thank you for reaching out, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused.  As discussed during your telephone conversation with Bestmed on 7 March 2025, our Hospital Pre-Authorisations team explained the reasons for the authorization decline, including the criteria that were app****. Your request and Motivation were received and carefully reviewed by our medical advisors. Unfortunately, after thorough consideration, the decision to decline the authorization remains unchanged.  Best Regards GM

Good day, Thank you for your response. Unfortunately, none of your pre-authorizations team explained the reason for the authorization decline or the criteria app****. I still do not understand why the request was declined or what criteria were used.
Best regards
