Hi Folks!! As mossman said, DAN does not cover issues of disease. If I had gotten the bug after or during a chamber ride or after a car accident then it would be an incidental associated with the incident. As such they told me I'm gonna die or pay the bill. Good luck, we wont touch this, your primary may or your travel visa.
I contacted my td travel visa pals, they told me I was out of country more than 8 days and had needed to pay an extension to qualify. Again your gonna die or pay.
I contacted my primary insurance which is Manulife, in five minutes I had a file number and a 'dont worry pay the bill, keep detailed receipts and get better to dive. That was comforting.
By the way none of the above said I was gonna die, that was my inside voice chatting along side their smiley face no.
The private hospital is on Calle 6. Yes, the one to go to is across from Aldora. That is where I was told to go. In my fog I went to the other one.
AGAIN, the Medico was very good to me, their staff most excellent. I am grateful to the nurses to no end. The administration and their billing pillaging is abhorring to me. But as I left the door I was grateful for my recovery and thought I would try to forewarn others of my mistake so that if they need medical stay they may not be taken advantage of financially as I.
My bill will be payed for, that gives no reason to exploit. In one form or another we end up paying for that behavior. Also what if I had had no coverage, that would be expensive to say the least.
