Unpaid claim

Our son was born by C section in July. He was put on the medical aid like we had to do as soon as we received the paperwork from the hospital. While in hospital for the normal 3 days for a c section the paed comes and checks on the baby. We received notice from the paeds rooms to inform us that medical aid rejected the claim that was sent as it was the wrong medical aid details. They corrected it and we sent the claim in to Resolution who have now rejected the claim saying we needed to obtain authorization. At no point were we told that we had 72 hours to get authorization for anything done in hospital except if the baby had to go to NICU which was not the case. How can they now refuse to pay the claim if we were not properly advised???And it has taken them so long to come back to us regarding this claim? Over 2-3 weeks????
