The main reason one has health insurance is to ensure ones health expenses are covered. To ensure that you are covered policy holders need to notify and check with insurers. Here lies the problem. Health providers, i.e. hospitals, surgeons, their reception staff, don't necessarily use the same terminology / procedure codes etc. It only takes one fault in this chain to leave the individual seeking confirmation to feel uncertain and frustrated during a time that is already stressful. I appreciate there are branches in which this inquiries could be answered face to face but in the instance of reduced mobility the only answers often lie at the end of a phone call. The miniumum times for calls answered over phone are 25min. Unlike other service support providers medibank offers no ability to request a call back. No, instead you are required to wait out the full waiting time on the phone. I fear this business has like many become increasingly focued on making money and not focused on the needs of its customers.
