They never answer their phones. They claim they're helping other people. What about me? Get more people on the staff. This is terrible at 9 o'clock in the morning. I should not ever be on hold. They need to hire more people. This is ridiculous to get a simple question

If I could give this place a no star I would! The lady was VERY rude and had no clue what she was doing. I tried asking her questions and she’d cut me off and say have a good day. Also claimed I apparently have “money” so my case could not be expedited even though I have zero money for anything and have two children. They have ZERO care about clients and this place is all about control and nothing more. I come from Fargo ND and they have a lot more cases then brainerd EVER would. The lady claimed phones have been busy all day so she has no time to call my work to verify I work there. Like what?? This place is AWFUL. They really need to correct how they treat people.

Brought paperwork in, scanned in by receptionist Sarah, but now no coverage because they didn't get my application, but I was covered for 2 months, and any of my proofs. We were told this has really gone downhill and the people that work here don't care, but wow. I didn't know it was this bad. Rude too, when you ask where your paperwork went. Like it's your fault.

I have been hung up on I have been wrongfully denied on multiple occasions because they weren’t processing the information I was giving in the timely matter given and then blaming me for their mistakes.. Sara McCusik and Kara griffin both on a recorded call promised a call back at a certain time just for them to not follow up and when I called back to follow up I was met with a support person who hung up on me because I asked to wait on the line to speak with them because I was consistently getting a run around. I have never ever dealt with such disgusting behavior before in my 31 years of life. They will not help you. This place is extremely neglectful to their clients and I hope they get sued for negligence very soon.
