A law unto themselves.

I pay R6,600.00 p/m for my wife and I. Discovery have carried an attitude of either not paying at all or paying just a portion. eg I had a one hour consultation with my Neurologist which, with tests, came to R1,550.00 Discovery paid R480.00. I have Chronic Inflammatory Demyelinating Polyneuropathy which simply put means my Immune System is attacking my nerves and the medication I take is very expensive and I will be on them for life but apparently this is, according to Discovery \Not Chronic"and therefore it is not chronic medication.<br> We have now reached our Above Threshold Monies but we are now told we cannot use any of it for medicines. We have now been told our self payment gap for 2016 will be increased to R20"
