Question: What can agents who are dissatisfied with Covered California service do to be heard by the people who run the agency?
Answer: Max Her replies, "If you, like I, are dissatisfied with the performance of CoveredCA, the Call Center (FOUR hours on hold today pursuant to the notification that four of my clients' documents were not in order and that they are in jeopardy of losing their coverage -- none of which is accurate), $58 payments for Medi-Cal enrollments that have never materialized, and so on, please email me (max.herr@verizon.net) with your complaints and concerns."
"I have decided to fly to Sacramento for the September 18 CoveredCA Board Meeting and will try to find a way to air our grievances with the Board in public session. We are, I believe, not being given the credit we deserve for effecting a significant percentage of both Medi-Cal and QHP enrollments for 2014, nor are we being asked for our input on how to make the system more efficient and accountable, and I believe it's high time to hold Peter V. Lee and the Board accountable to us for a change."
I look forward to hearing from you. I will print your emails and deliver them personally to the Board at the meeting. Ideally, it will be a large stack of paper.
