CHRONIC FAILURE - OF A MEDICAL ****

I have been struggling with a chronic application for more than two months as I need a particular asthma pump in order to breathe normally. I have tried alternatives as suggested by Bonitas and they simply do not work. My doctor even wrote a motivation to further explain why this pump is necessary and still no joy. I received a very unfriendly and dismissive call from someone this morning explaining that I would have a co-payment of R185 to which I responded that I am not willing to do. She just ended the call saying thank you and goodbye. WHAT NOW BONITAS????? We pay close to R7000 every month and you refuse to pay for a pump of R350 that will avoid a doctors bill of R500 every month??? Where is the logic???? This is disgusting... I might as well go back to DISCOVERY who has always covered this pump and SO MUCH MORE!
