Disc. Smart Plan Nightmare

The Discovery Smart Plan is not a wise choice. It is a stressful and frustrating plan that is fraught with problems. Currently, their IT system is rejecting every claim processed. Myself as well as the Discovery registered healthcare provider who needs to be paid by Discovery are continually having our claims rejected and assessed, rejected and assessed due to apparent "IT problems". Phone operators are helpful but all they can do is send the claim back to the claims department, who once again deny it. When you cover states that you are clearly covered for X and then you claim X only to be denied, it's enough to make you rest your head on the desk and simply cry.

I should've read the signs when the accountant at a hospital I recently visited said "Smart Plan? Not a very smart plan though, is it?"

That would be lovely. Seeing as you haven't yet contacted me, should I ignore this gesture?

Thank you for that feedback. I have been instructed to re-submit my claims once again as the agent I spoke to was unable to explain why they had been rejected in the first place. Hopefully this time everything will go smoothly.
