GAP Cover Refusing Claims After Emergency Hospital Admission – Extremely Disappointing Complaint: I am extremely unhappy with the service and claim outcomes from my GAP cover provider. I was hospitalised due to severe iron deficiency and was admitted directly from the emergency room. The treating doctor confirmed that the iron deficiency had to be caused by internal blood loss and proceeded with the necessary medical investigation while I was admitted. A gastroscopy was performed in hospital. While the procedure showed severe inflammation and changes in the stomach lining, the exact cause of the blood loss could not be identified. I was then treated with an iron infusion during my hospital stay. Now, my GAP cover has declined the claims on the basis of a 12-month waiting period for scopes. While I understand that the scope itself may fall under a waiting period, what is completely unacceptable is that they have also declined: The anaesthetist shortfall Specialist visits during hospitalisation Treatment related to my condition (including the iron infusion) Their reasoning is that all of this is linked to the scope, which is unreasonable. I was admitted as an emergency case, and the treatment I received was medically necessary. To make matters worse, they also declined a previous claim for my daughter’s emergency admission, stating that it was not between 18:00 and 06:00 — despite the fact that she was admitted directly from the ER on the same day. This raises serious concerns: What is the purpose of GAP cover if emergency admissions and necessary in-hospital treatments are not covered? How can an admission from ER not qualify as an emergency based purely on the time of day? I am now left with significant out-of-pocket expenses during an already financially difficult time.This experience has been extremely frustrating and disappointing, and I expected far better support from a GAP cover provider in a genuine medical emergency.
