Unhappy Patient

I am not happy with the fact that I am currently on the Bonsave option, the savings we get is already so low and to see a dermatologist I need to go to a GP for a referral letter first. I explained to the agent I spoke to that the GP takes R350 out of the savings just for a referral letter, then the dermatologist will obviously have to take their fees out of the savings as well. the agent told me this is the process, why does the GP get paid R350 just for a letter. i know for a fact that the GP cannot help with my issues because he has tried in the past and has failed, why should i now go back to him for a referral letter. Currently i have just around R1000 left in my savings. I understand that some people go to the specialist for simple things however my problem is not something simple, I have been ill for some time with auto immune diseases so I know the process very well. whats the point in medical aid when I now have to pay cash to the dermatogist? Very upset. forced to stay with Bonitas becuase the company is funding part of it.
