any help on how to go about claiming my medical expenses...

njeri

Hi i took travel insurance, went to africa and got malaria and was admitted for a week... now my travel insurance wont cover that because they claim i did not take enough precaution, even though i am telling them i did take anti-malaria before i traveled. Should i put my foot down and ask them to prove that i didnt take the anti-malaria,... under the terms and conditions they dont stipulated when i should have taken the precaution... As i dont have an innoculation record (remember malaria isnt inoculated) and whether or not one takes the preventative precaution one can still get it. Any advice on how i can get them to pay for the medical expenses, which the emergency team was aware of from the onset....
any advice is welcome

njeri......"Hi i took travel insurance, went to africa and got malaria and was admitted for a week... now my travel insurance wont cover that because they claim i did not take enough precaution" .

insurance companies and their loop holes surely not.

Ask Oshay about this, IC's pay 90% of claims apparently.

My opinion for what its worth is............. no they wont pay either.........Insurance companies are not charities they are in it for the cash........bandits without masks.....

ps......this is my opinion and sorry I cant "actually advise you" but in any case good luck...

Although you obviously can't prove that you took the anti-malaria medication, presumably you can prove that your doctor prescribed it and you purchased it? This should validate your claim.

do you need a prescription for anti-malaria tablets?

Either way there has to be some record of this. Official medical treatment always leaves a paper trail. You should be able to get hold of something to support your claim.

njeri................when me and my other half go on holiday..........my OH.............always contact the surgery to ask if we need Inoculations etc......is this a thing you have or would have done.................if so can you get a statement from your GP secetary saying you did so? ..........and send this to the bandits
