USELESS AND PATHETIC MEDICAL AID

I have to lodge 2 complaints in one. I asked Medihelp to change my debit order date to the 15th of the month as this is my salary date. My salary date used to be 30th. I have asked and emailed them and each month I get a message that my cover is suspended due to non payment. I just phoned and was told that they only do debit order runs on 1, 25 and 30 of each month - How stupid is that? Do a run on the 15th 25th and 30th - more options for the clients - THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE 1st OF THE MONTH and THE 30TH???? - But get that into their small brains. Second complaint - I already lodged this with the ombudsman for medical aids. Medihelp has ONLY 1 vascular surgeon in the whole of Gauteng and Limpopo combined. This surgeon only operate at Eugene Marais - Guess what? Eugene Marais is not on their list of approved hospitals. So now they will not pay my surgeon in full for a life threatening problem because I "VOLUNTARILY" chose to use a non network service provider. How can it be voluntary? You refused to give authorisation for Eugene Marais. DO YOU UNDERSTAND THE MEANING OF THE WORD VOLUNTARY? GROW SOME BRAINS.

AND STILL NO RESPONSE FROM YOUR "CONSULTANTS" - This is probably where they will stop responding and I will never hear from them again
