Medicaid Options
Medicaid Options is the name for Florida Medicaid's Managed Care enrollment
broker. In Medicaid Options, Medicaid recipients get care through MediPass,
Medicaid contracted HMOs, or Provider Service Networks (PSNs) or other contracted
entities. To assist recipients in making choices, the state of Florida has created
an enrollment and disenrollment helpline. You can contact an enrollment
specialist by dialing the toll-free number of the helpline:
Medicaid Options Helpline : 1-888-367-6554
This helpline is operated by ACS State Healthcare Solutions
who is contracted by the state to provide enrollment and disenrollment services
to Medicaid recipients. Specialists help Medicaid recipients enroll in a Medicaid
managed care plan by advising recipients of physicians that are in the plans, and
can help recipients understand the differences in benefits offered by the plans.
They can enroll recipients in the plan of their choice or assist recipients
in changes from one plan to another.
In addition to the enrollment and disenrollment helpline, Medicaid Options
provides written materials to assist Medicaid participants in choosing a
Medicaid managed care plan.
