Medical Aid and NHI Collusion in 2024 😳

Copy of letter to CureMed should get my point across about just how well Medical Aids baffle the public with bull@@@@ and even more so for their new 2024 plans.

Hi there

Not going to win with these “@@@@@“ from Discovery but I just have them a rev when I took a call from them about the matter just now….

Here is my Facebook post after the call… and I sent it to Hannes who owns Veganview on email too.

Morning Hannes and Team

Just shat all over the poor Discovery call centre agent that got the job of answering my query as to why I am being charged an out of network penalty for using Veganview pharmacy….

My post on Facebook might amuse you… I not rest with just a Facebook post either and am taking it further on social media….

Just posted this on FB…

There we go … got to 11 Jan and got a call from Discovery about “authorised suppliers”.

Wait for it as those of you on Medical Aid are in for a rough time when you realise what these guys have done and baffled you with marking bull**** about their new tariffs and schemes for 2024.

The colluding medical aid suppliers are in full and total collusion with government too. As of 1 January they implemented their own version of NHI.

We have been using a particular pharmacy for years. Needed an urgent supply of new and additional chronic meds to treat ulcerative colitis after a scope on 18 December and Veganview were the only pharmacy that could get hold of the particular meds urgently as per the surgeons instructions ……. 20% co-payment as a penalty for using a pharmacy that is not on their network!! Well the fekking place was on the network for 2023 and before this but suddenly it is not for 2024 going forward but clearly also for the last week of 2023 too.

Those of you in the Edenvale area take a close look at your medical aid as Linksfield Hospital will definitely cost you big time as it is not even on the list anymore and Bedford Gardens now needs a co-payment whereas is never did before.

Just gave the person a lecture on the phone then proceeded to tell them that for the past 3 years my vitality check advice from Discovery has told me that I need to eat more red meat and fish!!!! I have a 1:*** disorder that is controlled by a diet that means since been diagnosed 20 years ago at the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital in London I have medically been banned from eating fish, ruminant or any derivative thereof as I control an incurable condition by frikken diet FFS!!!

But wait for the calls as those doctors you have been going to for years who are not on the new 2024 approved doctors list are going to cost you co-payments or no-payments back from your medical aid going forward… the *******s have all implemented their own version of governments NHI in their 2024 tariff and plan structure.

I ended the call saying sorry not your fault ma’am but I am addressing those idiotic doctors that are listening in to this call……
