You are misinformed about Al Ahli. They do accept QIC cards but you only get a 15% discount from Al Ahli on presentation of your card at the counter. Then you must take your QIC medical claim form and receipt for treatment at Al Ahli and send it to QIC to get a refund. Your statement should have read, "Al Ahli no longer accepts QIC cards for direct billing".

The word is that QIC and Al Ahli fell out when Al Ahli raised the price for a visit from 200 to 300 QAR which wasn't the agreement in place in terms of direct billing between them.
