Dealing with health insurance companies can be more painful than whatever condition sent you to the doctor in the first place!
One standout exception to the rule is Chelsea-Anne Walker, a wonderful Client Relations Team member at General & Medical. In all my many dealings with her she has gone above and beyond - she is thoughtful, careful and prompt and efficient. She has helped me hugely and I am very grateful. I can't commend her highly enough. Someone should give that woman a pay rise!

Ethan was amazing

Ethan was amazing. He reviewed my account and returned to me with a comprehensive explanation of my options, he did this in a very timely fashion.
He emailed the details to me and followed up with a phone call. He was polite and courteous and made me feel comfortable with my understanding of the cover available to me. Never once during my interactions with Ethan did I feel overwhelmed or undermined.
Ethan is a credit to General and Medical and I am grateful to him for his time and efforts.

This is a truly awful company

This is a truly awful company. They make the claim and the authorisation process extremely complicated on purpose while pretending to be "helpful" with a view of customer making a mistake or giving up. In case of the former, they would make you pay making the product worthless. I have nothing but total contempt for them.
