Speedy assistance

I have been a member of Discovery health for the past 4 years, and never had to use the hospital cover, I also don't have any chronic conditions, so my exposure to those benefits were very limited. On 11 July, I had a mountain bike accident, went to the hospital, where I had xrays done, only to find out that I needed an operation on my ankle ASAP. The orthopaedic surgeon was called, and they started the procedure of getting authorisation for me to be admitted. By 18:15 that evening I went in for my operation, I arrived at the trauma unit at 15:00 that afternoon. While I was in hospital I received a phone call to inform me that all is covered and that my only concern should be my recoveryr. Since leaving the hospital I have also received a courtesy call to find out how I am doing and if I needed anything else from Discovery.<br> <br> I would like to THANK YOU for your great service during this stressful time with your speediness and by keeping me in the loop every step of the way.
