The worst insurance company I have ever dealt with. No one speaks English in customer service and I canceled my policy in December and yet they still auto charged my credit card for January even though they acknowledged my cancelling the Policy prior. They have still not credited me back the month and it has been almost 90 days. They keep sending me bills for each month even though they have already told me on the phone that they know my policy is cancelled. Just the worstReview fromTenika B

In May I would have been with care source for a year to be completely honest and blunt I do not like care source at all the first thing that bothers me about CareSource is that I have to go to another state or another city four hours away in order to go to the orthodontist because I need to be put to sleep because I have high anxiety next when I go to the doctor and the doctor place an order for me such as an MRI or a CAT scan I have to go through so many things or jump through so many hoops in order for them to even pay for the MRI today I had an MRI that they decline because they said I have to have been going through physical therapy for six months in order for them to pay for it when I am in pain now and have been dealing with this pain for over five years. This is ridiculous. What is someone supposed to do when they can’t even get the things they need from their insurance company. this insurance company does not give you the things that you need in order to get well. I am not a doctor so if I go to a doctor and they tell me, these are the things I need for my health, then why not pay for it? I am going to switch to another company.Review fromPete S

Regret choosing Caresource from the first place. My partner used their service once before when she was temporarily unemployed but canceled it later. We’ve paid a bill as we used it’s service once to purchase a subscribed medicine. Then a month later, the company sent another bill, telling us to pay the premium when she already canceled their service and with another carrier. We went on her online account but found nothing there to pay. What a bad company to be with. We tried to cancel the service (again) but there’s nothing else to do on her account to cancel it - no instructions whatsoever.Review fromJESSICA V.

This by far is the worst insurance I have ever dealt with in my life they want you to pay these huge premiums and they don't want to pay out anything. You need to have a prior authorization for medication you have been on for literally 10 years and is clearly working doesn't make any sense that they would pay out for medication that cost approximately the same amount of money but not the same medication that you actually need or want therefore causing you to have health issues. Also if you have the app be very careful because when you look at the amount due they'll try to get you to pay twice in one month which is absolutely appalling to me if you have an app there is absolutely no reason that they should not be able to get that right it's an accident they say, I think not! This insurance company is literally robbing people off of the marketplace not Medicaid but people who are paying off of the marketplace robbing Us blind it's highway robbery I will not be renewing this insurance as soon as it is over I don't care how much more money I've got to pay for a better insurance company this is ridiculous. And if I could give this zero Stars I would I don't know how they are still in business.Review fromGina U

I had CARESOURCE for a long period of time. I even paid 800/ month and> 10000 per year. This year I renewed my insurance - and because the premium was not updated, I keep calling to have this fixed. no matter how many times I have spoke to them - they couldn't understand that the invoice doesn't reflect on their site payment page. So last time when I have called - the supervisor called MARKETPLACE too, and I ended been verbally abused by the CARESOURCE supervisor - that started threaten me - SHE KEEP saying " a lot of people though that they are smart and they didn't pay their taxes, but the IRS CAUGHT THEM ALL", the marketplace employee heard her too. . (The market place employee WAS UNPROFESSIONAL TOO, TELLING ME THAT IF YOU ARE MARRIED YOU CAN ONLY APPLY FOR A FAMILY PLAN- she should get more training). After she repeated the 3rd time I just said I do not have to be abused by the CARESOUCE EMPLOYEE. I have cancelled my health insurance and found a different INSURANCE with a different carrier.Review fromLenora C

Thursday before last, my tooth began hurting. I endured Martin Luther king weekend but then on the actual day I was in excruciating pain. Did a search on CareSource app to find an in network doctor. I called every doctor/dentist on that list just to find they either were no longer in service, not accepting new patients, or do not take Caresource. I ended up having to go to ER, just to get some help. Which was probably out of net work too for all I know. After ER, I searched continuously all week for a dentist just to find 1 dentist and I hope they are legit. The app gave you the option to report an entry that was invalid, all entries would have required an individual email to report. Who has that kind of time? And we aren’t receiving a discount on our bills to report these either. When you’re sick, you need clear cut information to get the help you need. Not a rat race that ends in more unnecessary bills. Will not be choosing Caresource next year. Get it together before you get sued.Review fromSusan B

Awful company! I recently left my job due to anxiety (teacher). I didn't realize self-insuring would be so difficult. After asking for quotes online, I initially was contacted by a health insurance rep and was told that CareSource would be the best option financially for me at $30,000 income and that there was an option for dental and vision insurance that would be added to my monthly premium. After signing up and paying the $364 monthly premium for the first month, the rep put me through to someone who would take care of the details. This person told me who to contact with questions and filled out the final paperwork. This was all on 12/28/2022. By 1/18 I still had not received my member ID cards. I called CareSource with a simple request to get the cards and get my member ID. I was transferred 5 times in 1 hour and 45 minutes before I got to someone who could help. The last 2 people that I spoke to had such thick accents that I could barely understand them. 4 days later I received my cards in the mail. 2 days later I received the "Welcome" packet. It had dental cards included, but when I looked closely at it, it wasn't insurance at all, but an account where I would get services at a "reduced rate". The card specifically states on it "Not an Insurance". A day later, I received my first bill. The premium listed was $499! When I called to get clarification, it took another hour before I got someone who assured me that it was the correct premium I had agreed to and that CareSource did not offer vision or dental. I was floored and very angry. I hope this company is investigated. There don't seem to be any regulations for health insurance companies. Washington, please fix this! This is not "affordable" at all.Review fromAnna C

I have had CareSource for a few years through the Marketplace. On Dec. 15, 2022 I used Healthcare.gov to renew my policy. I realized an hour or so later that it was a different policy and not HSA eligible. I cancelled the CareSource policy on Dec. 15 and signed up for a different company's policy. On December 27,2022 CareSource withdrew a premium from my checking account and I called them and said it was cancelled on Dec. 15. The CS rep said that it would take a few days to work out and suggested I call Healthcare.gov. Long story short 6 calls, over 4 hours of phone time, mail received as if I was a member (twice), different time lines for refund, told 15 additional memberships opened in my name. I called my bank on Jan 18 for fear Care Source would withdraw another premium. The bank refunded my premium the next day! I asked the last CS rep if she was overseas and she said yes. Come on CareSource. Do a better job of training your Customer Service and give them the tools to assist your members. Also, fix that Cancellation issue from Healthcare.gov.Review fromMakayla F.

If I could give this no stars I would. I have had knee pain since 16 I am 21 now. I have had 4 surgeries and never had a problem with caresource approving the surgeries. Until the 5th surgery I got told that one of my levels being low I way around 215 and got asked if I was considering a diet or weight loss somebody please tell me how am I going to lose weight when I can’t do anything with knee pain I cannot jump I cannot run I cannot go to the gym because I am in constant pain but for caresource to decline my surgery and careless about people being in pain or peoples mental health is very unprofessional and very disrespectful but again they get paid either way. Do not recommend this insurance company it’s a joke. Such disrespectful people and company. With that being said reading the reviews anyone considering this insurance company DO NOT!!!Review fromDiane R

Care Source HAS NO HEART. NO Stars deserved I was on CareSource (CS) Ohio Marketplace in 2022. The company seemed great initially until they had a computer glitch. Note that CareSource made the mistake. Now I am paying, real money for their mistake. In November 2022, CS stopped my coverage due to a computer error. CS then reprocessed all my prior paid claims for 2022 as if I wasn't a CS member for the year. I paid all my bills yet, I started getting calls for claims I had already paid, CS customer service they said they would correct the problem. After resolving the computer glitch, they reprocessed my claims again. This time there were differences between the original Claim EOB's and the "correctly reprocessed". Now I have pay providers from March and April 2022 more money because CS paid part of these claims originally and now after being reprocessed in December they won't. What the heck how can these be different. NO one at CS Customer support could explain so I was told my only recourse was to appeal. The appeal responses have come back and they denied the appeal. ALL of this started with a computer Glitch on CS part. How come I am paying over $400 for their Mistake? CS Has NO Heart
