Taking to her X account, she wrote: “Its 1.45 am and i cant sleep bec of severe acidity. I have ulcers. And the last time my ulcers threatened to burst i had to be hospitalized.”
She spoke about how the insurance company “refused” to cover her hospitization cost.
“bec i hadnt declared my ulcers at the time of taking the policy (sic),”
The actress added: “But i didnt have ulcers at the time of taking the policy and now they are asking for doctors certificates to confirm i didnt have ulcers at the time of taking the policy. Next they will insist on the car number that kills u in advance so ur family can make a claim.”
Suchitra shared that she is “so disgusted”.
“I no longer care abt the refund - i will expose the fraud in their operations,” Suchitra added.
In different tweet, she added: “Their conduct so appalling - i would like a legal enquiry on the qualifications of doctors they employ. The one on my case certainly didnt understand how sciene or disease works.”
