Yes its geared toward agents, but its a pretty good explanation. I do like that able bodied people need to work, volunteer or go to school for Medicaid. Also the annual redeterminations are good. I have seen people stay on Medicaid a long time after their circumstances changed.

I just spent hours on the phone with someone who fell victim to a telemarketer. She was on a website and suddenly got a phone call tied to the site. They were offering extra benefits she might be eligible for. They signed her up to a new Medicare advantage plan. She did not understand or want to do this. They lied on the application to get it to go through. Scammers are ruthless. Her current insurance was set to end the 1st of the month with the new plan starting then. When audits found she didn't have a legitimate reason to enroll in a new plan, she may have been left with no coverage.
NEVER give information to anyone you did not initiate the call with.

I'm not at all happy. I just found out my phone number has been spoofed. People are getting calls showing up on caller ID with my name and number. At least 1 person has gotten calls that he returned and went to call centers being answered by someone he thought was from India. They were selling Marketplace health insurance. Since I sell insurance this is particularly distressing. The Verizon rep said they can't do anything. The incidence of it happening is higher if you have an apple phone.
SOOO: if you get a call from me it may not be me. If you hit redial it may not be me. If you cll my number or use direct dial from contacts it should come to me
