Sick and tired of terrible service!

Submitted a claim. Bonitas rejected two payments. One required a lab note. The other, they paid 2 parts of 1 test and rejected the other part saying it was a duplicate (which it wasn't - Pathcare sent them a note to explain it was not a duplicate test just the same code). I have phoned more than 5 times. First told to submit a lab note (done) and then when I phoned again, Aaron said note was received, but now I need Pathcare to sumit a paper claim (done). When I phoned yesterday, now they say lab note not received!!! Pathcare has sumitted all notes, paper claims etc. required for it to be processed. Pathcare submitted it on the 30 December to ***. But Bonitas says they did not receive it. I have proof that Pathcare sumitted it!!! Bonitas is an absolute joke!

Who told you it was resolved? I am still waiting for management to phone me. Only the one test has been put through for payment. But not the one for R205 (the one they thought was a duplicate, but wasn't). That amount is still outstanding.

Phoned Bonitas AGAIN! Gugu says it was not submitted as part of my query because it was not on the lab note. IT WAS!!!!!!!!!!! Read email sent on 30/12/2020. Now I had to phone Pathcare ONCE AGAIN to ask them to resubmit it ONCE AGAIN and explain ONCE AGAIN that it is on the Lab note and it is NOT A DUPLICATE claim. Thanks for all the inconvenience Bonitas. Useless! Your staff need better training. They can't even read a simple email.

BONITAS How long am I supposed to wait for this to get sorted out? I have phoned more than 20 times which has costed me more than the R205 that Bonitas just needed to pay. This is also taking time away from my work. Will Bonitas reimburse me for all the time and money I have spent trying to get this resolved? I am still waiting for a manager to contact me! This mornign Gugu said her superviser would contact me, but she still hasn't. I want this sorted today!!!!!!!!!!!!
