After several days of calling, my husband finally got through to Medicaid to ask why we were being told by the HMO that we weren’t enrolled.
Apparently, we’re still enrolled on a temporary basis. We can still see doctors and get medications, but they haven’t made a final decision on our application. No idea when they’ll make a final decision.
Until we get final approval, we’re not going to have access to the online listing of doctors that accept Medicaid. We’re also only going to have a letter as proof, rather than a plastic card.
Why the HMO said we weren’t enrolled when we are, temporary status or not, is still unclear.
In the meantime, we’ve just been calling doctors and asking if they take Medicaid. Now we just have to reschedule the appointments we canceled because of this bullshit. Bleh.
