Pathetic

My husband has to undergo a surgery on the 2nd of October. I had to get authorisation and it was declined. He is walking with a knee where a piece of bone has broken off. He can barely walk, it’s affecting his work and he is in constant pain. He has to undergo a simple surgery where he’ll only be admitted for one day. Discovery won’t give authorisation for the surgery. This is not a cosmetic surgery, my husband’s day to day activities are affected!!! I must add that Apple from Discovery has been very helpful since it has been sent to the medical review team but we’ll only have an answer 1-2 days before the surgery... We can’t wait until then as you still have to go for a COVID test before you get admitted. Totally pathetic how a surgery like this isn’t covered!! Seriously considering cancelling with Discovery.
