Discovery Health
Termination Of Contract

It's been 4months since I have had my membership with Discovery health, and I have been paying my premiums accordingly without defaulting on any of the premiums, I recently went for a pap smear and I was advised that I must go to a gynecologist for a check. Seeing that I have a medical aid with discovery I thought that it wouldn't be a problem of course. On the 12-04-2013 I went to my gynecologist and advised me that I need to be scheduled for an operation, I was at ease with everything cause I knew that I had medical aid which I can rely on and which should cover my medical bills. On the 19-04-2013 I received a disturbing sms that my contract with Discovery is going to be cancelled. I spoke to a Consultant and she advised me that my contract has been cancelled based upon the fact that I did not disclose the fact I usually have abdominal pains. Like really out of all the things they could tell me it not make sense cause as far as I am concerned a pain is something which happens unexpectedly and which I cannot control, and surely every human being has a pain @ some stage. We would be talking a different story if I had not paid all my premiums i am seriously getting inconvinienced
