I paid one month in advance and they sent money back. My son had been in hospital for a couple of weeks and I wasn't paying attention to bills. Six weeks later, my policy got cancelled as they said I couldn't pay in advance. .Then, I found out my policy doubled because of a mistake. I called the company because I was out of meds. One day they said I owed a certain amount. Then I ended up calling back three times and every time they said I owed a different amount. Today, I can't afford it and will most likely die because I can't afford to get them money.

I wish I could choose NEGATIVE stars. This is the worst coverage I have EVER HAD! I had traveled to Massachusetts for Valentine's Day. Wound up getting violently ill, A BLEEDING EMERGENCY that I had to call 911 and get an ambulance for....THEN, I get A HUGE BILL from the ambulance company as WELL AS the hospital...TURNS OUT AMBETTER (SCHMUCKS) DOESNT COVER OUT OF STATE EMERGENCIES AT ALL AND NEVER PAYS FOR AMBULANCE NEEDS EVEN IN THE STATE OF OHIO! WTF! I GUESS IT WOULD HAVE BEEN CHEAPER TO JUST DIE FROM MY INJURIES!

I was enrolled in auto pay. But they told me I wasn’t and did not even inform me before cancelling my service when I was willing to pay. When I complained about it the customer service representative got rude. Now, I cannot reenroll the clinics of this health plan sucks everything sucks about this health plan. The clinics look like a typical third worls countries clinic. I only chose this plan because it was cheaper. Had I known earlier about the poor state and shape of this sorry health plan I would have invested in a better plan even if it costed more.

Impossible to actually order glasses. Cannot order anything online, and when I was told I could order at Walmart, I spent an hour and a half on the phone trying to get guidance on how they could actually implement the $130 off. My insurance expired before I could ever use benefits. 10/10 would never ever use this company. I'd imagine if you had a serious health issue, you'd die prior to receiving any sort of decision on whether they would cover.

I wish I could give zero stars. They are complete liars. They list doctors on their website, which consumers use to select carriers, who are not in their network. Once you have selected Ambetter, you find out the truth and you are stuck with sub par doctors. I am stuck with them until open enrollment even though they used a bait and switch to get me as a customers. They are liars and not reputable.

They are hopelessly messed up. They continally deny my claims as out of network when I find the providers on their network website! I keep getting the same bills over and over from a Dr I went to and when I call Ambetter to ask why they are not being paid they say they never got the bill. So I call the Dr office and they say they have submitted and resubmitted bills over and over. It's like they don't want to pay the bills. I cannot believe they call this health CARE because it is NOT.

They should call themselves Amworse because if you need any specialty medication, you’re pretty much SOL. I’ve been on a medication for nearly a decade and have appealed their rejection of it without success. An ok health insurance company if you don’t actually need anything to benefit your health.

Do not use this company. They will put profit above your health every time. I need a once a week infusion for a complicated genetic disease. I sent the info to Ambetter a week before my policy began. 30 days later I still don't have the drug. They also denied the nursing service to infuse the drug. I filed a complaint with Fl Insurance commissioner. Stay away. This company will kill you.

WORST INSURANCE COMPANY IN THE USA. Ambetter continues to deny their lies. Don't use this company you will be very sorry. I have not found one person who is satisfied with Ambetter. Most all have the same response "Ambetter lied to me about benefits" All they want to discuss is payment methods. Even the supervisors lie over and over. They refuse to release transcripts of your phone calls because they are full of lies. WORST INSURANCE COMPANY IN THE USA.

Fake list of providers. Many providers are not accepting Ambetter. Needed many hours on the phone to finally get approval to a provider for my colonoscopy . Was told free colonoscopy screening was covered . That anesthesia was free as well. Now I get my bill and told that the anesthesia actually was done by an OUT OF NETWORK provider and was NOT covered . Got a bill for $500 .. PLEASE KNOW you can file a complaint with the Office of your states Insurance Consumer Advocate !!!!! I certainly will- this is just wild what this Ambetter is trying to pull off .

I'd rather give it NO stars. So far: They have no record of my first payment. However, they sent a card. With an incorrect ID. I called them and also sent a screenshot of my first payment and they said, essentially, "Oh well, don't know what might have happened to that." The P.O. box address on the email they sent me (saying they had not been paid) turned out to be incorrect. They did find that I had an account, but I was enrolled in a more expensive one I had not chosen. They have frozen my ability to obtain needed prescriptions. I call them Amworse.

My Experience was that their provider network was so small, even in a large metropolitan area, that I sometimes has as few as one, or even no provider option, and in fact in the last quarter of 2017, was unable to find any care in two needed specialties. Several they show in their network were either no longer taking ambetter, or scheduling out until the next year, or not actually in their listed specialty, or otherwise unavailable. They also failed to provide their listed rewards 4 times throughout the year, two of which they acknowledge, and all of which they now refuse to offer.

Trust me this is not the company to use for health coverage. Only if your visits to the doctors are sparse and non existent and your monthly premium is 0.00. This company doesn’t value their employees or members. They don’t provide quality training or good response times. Please only use them as a last resort and still don’t consider them even then.

I would like to give no stars!!! I have spent DAYS trying to fix our plan. There was a data entry error and it took 9 days to get the prescription drug side of the insurance correct....all while my 4 hear old asthmatic had to go without meds for 9 days. There was no urgency in fixing the problem.

The worst marketplace insurance. Total scam. I’ve called about 15 times to update my kids primary care physicians and have been told 15 times they are updated and correct but they arent. I’m paying for a health insurance I can’t use. We pay $1400 a month for a plan that people get for free since it is a Medicaid company. Doctors don’t take it. Do not use or buy this insurance. It is awful and they should be ashamed of themselves for the company they are running.

I said to them, so if I went to the ER it would of been covered? They said Yes. So they would rather pay $2500.00 for an ER visit, then for a clinic visit.

I find that there website for listings of providers is deceptive. They show numerous facilities/doctors but yet when you call they no longer accept this insurance. When you do find a provider that still takes Ambetter, then as a new patient your wait time to get an appointment can be 3 months. In addition when you call their customer service they tell you they are sorry, but can't help in any way, just the way things are. Very frustrating!

This is by far the most negligent and incompetent insurance company ever. They have the worst IT system and are lousy with customer service. Never return calls, often have glitches in the system that will cancel your service and they offer no warranty to fix their mistakes in a timely manner.

This Company is the 'Lowest Denominator' in the Health Insurance and Obamacare industries. They have a very thin network of the worst Physicians, horrible Customer Service with long hold times, and they are very stingy in authorizing expensive procedures and medications. This is NOT a carrier which I recommend at all,,,one should not be insured with them for any kind of major illness or care. If you are given a choice to pay more for a slightly better carrier, do so! This company is even bad at collecting premiums, and has a high cancellation rate. Much of their service is outsourced.

I've had several insurance policies over my lifetime and this is, without a doubt, the worst. However, because I purchased it through the Marketplace, I'm stuck with it until the end of the year. Each time I try to choose a doctor from the list provided online or call Customer Service, it always ends up that the doctor doesn't take Ambetter for new patients. They don't cover 2 meds that I need. And that's not to mention the $6,850 deductible per person. Insane. None of this is revealed when you're buying the policy of course. Stay away!!!

Ambetter is absolutely terrible. They offer rewards for doing things like taking Nutrition quizzes and visiting your PCP, only problem is that it's near impossible to use the money.. I received my 'debit card' that is supposed to be how to use the money you earn and I tried it several time with no success. Called literally 3 times and emailed back and forth a few times and got nowhere. Nobody knew anything about it and nobody knew how to fix it. Then after a few months it just magically worked.
