Discovery Health
Pregnant and STRESSED!

Im amazed at Discovery's business-mind outlook. The last time i checked, i was paying for a TOP medical aid who would help me in times when your health is at risk, moreso that of an unborn baby. After days and weeks of escalating a chronic application for Gestational Diabetes, Discovery had approved paying for Insulin that i need to take 4 times a day, As it is two different insulin types i assumed cover would be R720 per insulin as the Cost of the Insulin is outrageous, this is how it had been covered 4 years back when i had my daughter. Only to my surprise, i had to pay in excess of R1000 for 1 months supply as Discovery only covers R720. Now really, i am stressed as this is money i dont have, Discovery is pathethic, i wish i could change my medical aid, rather than concentrate on cost, you should be more worried of more costs of complications later on, its amazing, i am now on Classic Comprehensive and i am getting less benefits, whereas 4 years back i was on Coastal Saver and covered completely for 2 types of insulin. I dont have time for this stress and will take this further, what happened to the hypocratic oath? Are the Doctors there real doctors or just accountants?
