Can't get through to schedule state doctor appointment - phone just rings, voicemail full. Help!

I found a way to solve scheduling state doctor appointment, watch this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bUuYcgw4Qg

Ugh, I feel your pain! I've been dealing with the same issue for weeks now. It's like they don't want us to get the help we need. Have you tried calling right when they open? That's worked for me in the past.

I found a way to get someone on the phone! I used this site's (claimyr.com) calling tool that dials the phone menu, stays on hold, waits for a live agent to pick up, then sends the call to my phone. It does cost $20, but it works. Here's a video explaining it: https://youtu.be/1X-mEsLtbmQ

Have you tried sending an email? I know it's not ideal, but sometimes they respond faster that way. Here's a template I used: Subject: Urgent Request to Schedule State Doctor Appointment Dear [Department Name], I've been unable to reach anyone by phone to schedule an appointment with the state doctor. The line continuously rings and goes to a full voicemail. Due to [your reason], it's crucial that I secure an appointment ASAP. Could you please help expedite this process or provide any alternative solutions? Thank you for your attention and support. [Your Name] [Your Contact Info]

This is ridiculous. We pay taxes for these services and can't even use them. Has anyone tried contacting their local representative about this issue?

I work in a doctor's office (not state) and I can tell you that full voicemail boxes are often intentional. It's a way to manage call volume when they're understaffed. Not saying it's right, but that's probably what's happening.

Pro tip: If you can't get through on the phone, try showing up in person first thing in the morning. Sometimes they keep a few slots open for walk-ins. Bring a book tho, you might be waiting a while.

lol welcome to the wonderful world of state healthcare 🤡 where the phones don't work and the appointments don't matter
