Supplementary benefits:STANDARD PLAN NOT TRUE

LATEST ENQUIRY:<br> 290515C7NWWN E-MAIL Member *** 290515Q9X5SD Open 2015/05/29 APPLIANCES Member ***<br> Standard PLAN Get more value with supplementary benefits IS NOT available as they promise per brochure/website. NOWHERE IS IT MENTIONED THAT SPESIAL AUTHORATION IS NEEDED. I am a Hemiplegic disabled and need a wheelchair after a huge Foot operation as decay of my disability and had to be non-weight bearing for months and if long distances must be covered. I MADE AN ENQUIRY BEFOREHAND WRT THIS WHEELCHAIR BENEFIT two days before operation and two days after operation. I was assured that this BENEFIT is available AND PAYMENT WILL NOT BE AN ISSUE. Enquiries wrt this issue 23/2 until 13/6/15 MORE THAN 15 times on their own records is made without been solved. After enquiring as per their own records, when payment will be made, suddenly I was advice that special authorization and motivation is needed AS THIS SERVICE IS NOT COVERED BY PLAN. After sending mail to\ bonspecialcases"PROSTHETIST (mailed second time when icd code had to be changed as requested) AND ORTOPEDIC SURGEON also sent MOTIVATIONS/prescription to department not yet solved. <br> """
