Discovery treatment of members

The medical plan that I was a dependent on was canceled retrospectively in May, having been on this plan since 2017, I immediately called discovery to purchase my own replacement medical cover. Without even a full month's break, they have charged me a late joiners penalty, imposed a 3 month waiting period and discontinued my chronic medication. All this for a break of under a month. Well done Discovery, hopefully the day comes that you can't bully and rip people off so easily
