Subject: FW: Discovery Medical Aid - Disgrace



On the attachment you will see that Discovery Health has agreed to accept Adrian as a member but.....................................................

1. There is a 3 month waiting period !
2. No claim related to his premature birth for 1 year will be paid!!!!!!

As you know, this is of no use to us. It will mean we will have to pay his premium for 1 year before we will be able to claim anything from them. I have also added a photo of Adrian. He is an innocent baby who needs medical care and it is in their hands to supply him with that. His mother cannot afford it!!!!!!!!!!

What I need from you now is to please help me in making it clear to Discovery Health that we need Medical Aid assistance for the sick and not only for the healthy. If you support us in getting Adrian on to the Medical Aid from his date of birth please add your name on to this list when forwarding it to all the names on your address list.
Every 100, 200, 300 etc. Please forward the list to
RenevdB@ifgafrica.co.za

Somebody that has the authority to make such a vital decision must hear our plea and react favorably to it. We pray that God will open his / her heart.

483 Hennie Louw (This is not the first time that I have heard Discovery denying medical assistance to its members. Typical of some Medical Aid schemes. I think that the members of Discovery should start looking for another medical aid scheme.
484 Kobus Swanepoel ? DISCOVERY IS JUST A NAME ? People work there - - - - People at Discovery WHERE IS YOUR HEART? Close your eyes for a second and think how you would feel if it was your child?
485 Riana Venter Maybe Discovery is going too big and don't care anymore about the person but rather about how much money they are making - The health Minister should look at these cases and focus on the medical aids, rather than the hospitals. Then not sure if this child is in the care of a Netcare hospital, but possible they should bring this to the attention of Dr Richard Friedland, CEO of Netcare to look at this case and reduce the costs thereof.
486. Fiona Bellochun - Kindly forward to as many people as you can-As well as most people should cancel discovery medical aids.
This is a terrible medical aid.No one should have this medical aid.
