Discovery Health
Don't get what you paid for pathetic medical aid

We are on one of Discovery's top plans. We are paying R 6000 per month. This gives you R72 000 per year, our savings plan is only R17 000 for the year. I assume, that we sponsor other people, without medical aid, with the remaining R 55 000. I need this money that I am paying now for myself. I need to get iron drips. I have iron defency anemia. My count is very low, I went to a specialist internes. She recomedend also a bone marrow test, this test also show that my iron is very low, and that my body block the intake of iron. The only why is the drips. It is very dangerous if you don, t have enough iron, you can die. Disvovery just refuse to pay for this. According to their incompetend doctors, or whatever you call them, I have enough iron, and don't need it. I went to 2 different drs, and both want me to get the drips. We are fighting with Discovery for a month now, and they just refuse. Jennelle also said to me. That she don't understand Afrikaans (the results of the bone marrow test is in afrikaans), so she don't understand the test. They even make me to do another blood test, my iron was lower on that test, as the previous one, the still refuse. DISCOVERY = PATHETIC
