Horrible service, bridge of contract

I was sent to hospital on the 5/07/2021 at Botshelong hospital was admitted by the doctor, Medical aid told me it can't authorise and has to send my request for admission to their relevant team and send my gp document to sign. The following day doctor calls me in and we follow the process they advised then the **** if a medical aid says that they can't cover my admission they sending request again to the team, when asked what must happen now as this is an emergency the representative Vannesasaid she can't tell me what to do but it's either I pay cash at the hospital after I explain to her what I was told she rudely said I must go to public hospital if I can't pay cash, yet am paying medical aid, am sitting now in pain can't walk or sleep yet I pay medical aid,What is the purpose of me paying medical aid if it does not assist me, you just robbing us our money and sending us to die.**********, what must I do now

Yes someone contacted me and put me through to another department but my issue is not resolved, still waiting for the person to call me back as stated, still waiting for authorisation since the 7th still in pain and very uncomfortable.

Honestly this has been the worst experience I have ever had. What is wrong with your company, what must one honestly do now...it's not as if you are giving your services for free, am ****** paying you for them. What direction are you giving me now, what compensation are you offering for all this. Am still sick no help...this is ******* honestly
