Gems is the worst medical aid in south africa!

Here goes Gems again. This time they gone to far and council of medical schemes shall get all the proof they want and see what Gems is doing to their members. I was admitted on the 22/04/26 in hospital until the 27/04/26. They given authorisation for those dates but this stupid Gems decides to use my day to day benefits and pay the service providers that claimed in hospital. How stupid can one be??? Gems you better reverse those and give back the money in my day to day benefit. Your agents in the call centre are so ****ing useless.
