PREGNANCY EXCLUSION

i app**** for medical aid in December 2018 and my membership started in Feb 2019 .

in march i found out i was pregnant and i notified medishield, in April my maternity benefits were lifted .

now in June they sent me an email stating that they are excluding my pregnancy they will not cover anything until December 2020 .

i was not pregnant when i joined the scheme. i only found out later.
