VHI - Disputing Maternity Claim

Hi, I was admitted to hospital for observation the night before my baby was born, I was 35 weeks pregnant. My waters broke un -expectantly early the next morning and baby arrived at lunchtime. I was in hospital for 4 nights in total. VHI are only covering the 3 nights. I would have counted the first night as a "hospital"…

I was in hospital for 4 nights in total. VHI are only covering the 3 nights. I would have counted the first night as a "hospital" stay and separate to maternity cover. My consultant has written to them 3 times however they still wont accept the letter. Any advice please.
