What’s going on with Medicaid Applications at the Department of Children and Families around the state of Florida?
You may have noticed serious delays in getting Medicaid approvals.
You may have received a NOCA (notice of case action) that tells you something is missing but doesn’t tell you what.
You may have noticed that your phone calls and emails are not being responded to.
You may have noticed that your cases are being transferred to another county.
If you’re stressed about this you’re not alone. Families and facilities are under tremendous pressure and everyone in this world is feeling it. And this is compounded by the 30 day rule which precludes starting all over again with a new application.
You may not be alone but I’m sure that doesn’t help anyone. We have been working the system and contacting the necessary people and finally getting approvals, but it’s not a smooth sail and it takes much longer. Our applications are generally perfect and complete, so once we get their attention the balance of the process is clear sailing.
Let us help you get those approvals. I can advocate based on the federal law, the Florida Medicaid Manual, the administrative code and over 30 years of experience.
In our next blog, I’ll tell you about some nightmares we’ve been able to turn around to success.
