Key Health medical aid is a ****

It’s all nice when one is paying the premium but when one needs pre authorisation it is a problem, the scheme is always looking for an excuse to decline. For goodness sake this useless medical aid doesn’t care about one’s life. They requested proof of medical history from the surgeon who operated my mom and after 3 days they come back and still ask that who is the surgeon who operated yet it’s there in black in white and even on the phone whilst we followed up we clearly stated that the surgeon who previously operated my mom before joining their scheme is the doctor who will provide all the required information. I’m now wondering that since Monday what nonsense was being investigated since an issue not related to what we are requesting pre authorisation for is being declined. This is the worst medical aid ever! Had I read the previous reviews before I wouldn’t have joined them for my mom. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THE SCHEME FOR ANYONE! THEY CLEARLY ONLY CARW ABOUT RECEIVING THE MONTHLY PREMIUMS WITH ZERO SERVICE.

Dear Edith

The comment has been referred to the Clinical department (non-disclosures) for investigation and feedback to our Principal member.  

It should also be noted, due to the POPI act we will not be able to provide you with any information regarding our principal member (Ms. L Baloyi) medical aid information, as you do not have consent. 

We sent an application for consent form to be completed/signed/returned to KeyHealth, to our principal member this morning.

Sincerely,

The KeyHealth team

Dear Edith

We again want to confirm that we sent the consent form to our principal member to be completed.

Our non-disclosure (*NDC) department sent correspondence to our principal member to explain what a non-disclosure is, and requested outstanding information from the treating doctor as well as our principal member.

For any further enquiries, the principal member should communicate with our NDC department on the e-mail address ***. For any other enquiries the principal member can forward the communication to ***.

Sincerely,

Dear KeyHealth Team,

Please advise when you sent the supposedly correspondence. My mom’s emails have just been getting ignored, the doctor submitted everything that was requested from X-rays to lab results so I don’t understand what more could be requested from a member that you don’t even bother responding to her questions. Or the excuse will be that you never received the emails? My sentiments are still the same, KeyHealth is trash and a scheme that only wants money but has no interest to provide services! When will you provide feedback on this issue?

Regards,
Edith

It turns out KeyHealth will claim they never received a response whilst they are cooking a response. My mom spoke to two consultants who both said the last email was from KeyHealth from the 20th asking my mom and her doctor to provide information, information was provided but because KeyHealth is a **** they are working with the investigating officer or case manager or whoever it is, Yolandi Bauchop. So pathetic that even the consultants are instructed to hang up when you ask them questions. Useless medical aid.

Dear Edith,

Kindly accept our apology if you feel that the call was dropped.

The clinical consultant who you spoke to called our non-disclosure department while you were on the line to discuss the non-disclosure, on return to the call you were no longer on the line and the next caller was already on the line.

According to the information available, our non-disclosure department sent an updated e-mail to the principal member to inform her that all the information was received/prepared and referred to the Scheme, for a recommendation to finalize the matter.

Kindly request our principal member to contact our clinical department on Telephone number ***or forward an e-mail to ***, for any further enquiries regarding this matter.   

As we confirmed with you in the previous comments; you do not have consent on this membership,  KeyHealth will no longer be engaging with you on the issue on Hellopeter.

Sincerely,

The KeyHealth team

I’m the one paying you so I have full right to follow up, do whatever I want. Even now my mom called you and you refused to cancel the membership immediately. I’ve already put her on a reliable and efficient scheme so why should I pay two medical aid schemes when you are the ones who decided to be trashy? Since I spoke to Sana Ledwaba In November 2022 to authorise debit orders on my account why can’t I do the same now when I’m requesting to be removed from anything that connects me with the scheme.
