How can I speak to a live person at the New Jersey Medicaid?

There are two methods to reach a live person:

  • 1.) by calling manually over and over again, get on a long hold, and then hope the call doesn't drop -- and I'll show you how to do that,
  • 2.) use a calling tool that dials for you, stays on hold, and forwards a call to your phone number when an agent is on the line. (RECOMMENDED)

New Jersey Medicaid Callback Tool: About Claimyr

Like you, I was at wit's end trying to find a good way to reach a human when I was unemployed in the 2020 pandemic lockdown. After calling 500 times a week to the EDD in California, I built a software program to dial for me automatically. This led to me sharing this tool with you. So far, a few hundred thousand people have used it to reach a live human not only at the New Jersey Medicaid but also at the IRS phone number, Airlines phone numbers, Healthcare provider phone lines, and many more hard-to-reach phone lines across America.

Claimyr is a software-as-a-service that automates the entire calling process for you. We do this by programming software to

  • automatically dial the New Jersey Medicaid phone number,
  • navigate the phone menu,
  • stay on hold,
  • detect if a live agent has picked up the call,
  • then forward a call to your phone with a live human waiting for you

The value for you is you can quickly get paid without the hours, days, weeks, and months of manually dialing over and over, staying on hold for hours, and often redialing after a dropped call. Instead, using Claimyr, all you need to do is press a button and wait for a callback to your phone with a live agent on the call.

Yes, Claimyr is legit. We welcome you to search Google for "Claimyr". You'll see thousands of genuine happy reviews, news articles, and our location (San Francisco).

And no, Claimyr doesn't clog the lines or make matters worse. This is because Claimyr has a one-call-per-customer policy. We only place a single call at a time for you. We don't blast the phone lines as this would be cost-prohibitive for us (our calls would be preventing our own calls from reaching a human) and goes against our values. Also, if you use Claimyr, you stop calling yourself. This means that Claimyr doesn't add additional calls to the phone lines that wouldn't already be there anyway.

News coverage of Claimyr for the skeptical:

Get help fast when dealing with New Jersey's social services. If you're navigating Medicaid queries, reaching out through the dedicated 800-701-0710 line connects you to live support swiftly.

What is the best time to call the New Jersey Medicaid?

Do not call during these times (unless you are using Claimyr, which then you can order a callback 24/7 Monday - Sunday):

  • 👎 Monday mornings
  • 👎 After 5 pm on any day
  • 👎 Friday afternoons (as you'll likely not solve your issue until the following week)

But again, if you are using Claimyr's automated callback tool, then you will be able to place a call literally anytime during the day and get a callback soon after.

The best time to call the New Jersey Medicaid is Wednesday and Thursday afternoons. ⚠️WARNING⚠️: please beware that you often need to dedicate an entire day to dialing over and over just to get on hold. Also, the New Jersey Medicaid is notorious for dropping calls even when you finally do get on hold! So if you decide to start calling mid-week, due to excessive call volume, you may not be able to reach an agent until the following week or longer.

If you don't consider calling the New Jersey Medicaid a full-time profession, consider using a calling tool such as Claimyr to guarantee a callback with an agent on the line with zero hold time.

When trying to sort out your health coverage or aid needs through New Jersey Medicaid, reaching a real person for help is key, as outlined in our guide on how to call and reach a live human. Medicaid isn't the only lifeline available from the state; you might also be searching for support in other areas like finding a job or improving work skills. For such services, there's assistance provided through New Jersey's WorkFirst program. If you're looking to connect with WorkFirst for employment and training resources, the direct line to a human operator can be found at the New Jersey Workfirst Phone Number. Similar to reaching out to the Medicaid service team, you can get personalized help and speak with someone who can guide you through WorkFirst's services and benefits.
