Currently we are handling Medicaid calls and this could be coming down our road too. In some cases I've heard there aren't any problems, but the needs of the individual can get lost in an already cumbersome system.
I know our callers appreciate (as do our providers) speaking with the same people who know them and what's available. I'm not convinced an outside call center can necessarily provide the best service for people. I may stand corrected.

transportation
Hello everyone,
I just recieved a call from a man covered by Medicaid, but who couldn't get a bus pass for his many medical appointments. I called Broome DSS and found out that they had just outsourced their transportation to the aforementioned Medical Answering Services at the beginning of the month, and it is a lengthy automated system to get through. I'm now trying to find someone who knows what's going on. Not very promising.
