I am Power of Attorney for Theodore ***** who has a disability policy with Mutual of Omaha, **** ************* There was an issue with unpaid benefits, which was partially resolved. Mutual of Omaha's representative, Kristie ******, worked with us to get the payments caught up but charged an overpayment of roughly $******. I have asked for EOB's and statements showing the overpayment calculations on several occasions. Kristie initially said she would get them to me and when I followed up on December 22, 2022, she said she was working on getting them to me. Since then I have called and emailed Kristie but she is refusing to respond and has not provided the requested documents. I also asked her a question about the W-9 that was issued to Ted but she has completely ignored that request. I just want to get the promised statements and an answer to the W-9 question.Customer Answer

RE: Member ID ************
After my enrollment ended on 1.31.23, I asked to be reinstated to Mutual of Omaha Rx Plan effective 2.1.23 with application #****************. Yet, *** has not approved enrollment with Mutual of Omaha Rx Plan Part D with effective 2.1.23 at this time.
On 2.5.23, I submitted a 2nd application to Mutual of Omaha Rx plan because I qualified under special circumstances for enrollment because I requested Medicare information in an accessible format for disability reasons. I got less time to make my decision. Application confirmation #************. When I contacted Mutual of Omaha Rx plan on 2.13.23 to inquire about my status, I was informed that my application was terminated because M.O.O.
Rx representatives were not able to reach me by phone or mail.
However, I never received any messages via phone or mail from Mutual of Omaha Rx plan except Erin at Mutual of Omaha Rx Plan when we discussed *** must approved backdating coverage to 2.1.23.
Hence, Medicare resubmitted a 3rd application on my behalf because I qualify for special enrollment because I requested Medicare information in an accessible format for disability reasons. I got less time to make my decision. Application confirmation number is #************ with effective date of 3.1.23.
Mutual of Omaha Rx plan accepted my premium per my ***** bank account and I would appreciate a new enrollment card effective 3.1.23 unless *** approves an effective date of 2.1.23.Customer Answer

On 1.22.23 I placed 1st application with Mutual of Omaha Rx Plan via Mutual of Omaha Rx Plan's website and I was supplied with confirmation number of ****************. I provided the Special Enrollment Period Reason: "I requested Medicare information in an accessible format for disabled with *********. I got less time to make my decision, or I didn't get it in time to make a choice before my enrollment period ended."
On 2.5.23 I received a phone call from Anna, Mutual of Omaha Rx Plan, that my application terminated because I was enrolled with ***** ****** Rx Plan. I asked Anna why my application on 1.22.23 was not processed with effective date of 2.1.23 so that I would automatically be disenrolled from ***** with effective date of 2.1.23. Anna asked me to contact ***** about disenrolling me with an effective date of 2.1.23. Then, Mutual of Omaha Rx Plan would reinstate me with effective date of 2.1.23.
Later, it was stated by Tracy (2.13.23, 2.15.23), Jeanette (2.17.23), Priscilla (2.22.23) from Mutual of Omaha Rx Plan and Toni (2.23.23) that I did not have special enrollment period reason to change plans and my applications on 1.22.23, 2.5.23 and 2.13.23 were terminated. My Part D Rx applications were terminated until I filed a complaint on Medicare's website (2.23.23).
Legally, Mutual of Omaha Rx Plan did not have a valid reason to terminate any of the Part D Rx applications including 1st application (#****************). An invalid reason for special enrollment period misrepresents the facts. As stated by Medicare's representative (2.13.23) and on Medicare's website that you are eligible for special enrollment period if Medicare information is in inaccessible format. I got less time to make my decision, or I didn't get it in time to make a choice before my enrollment period ended (see attachment).
Hence, I request that 1st application (confirmation #****************) with effective date of 2.1.23 be processed. I would like coverage reinstated with effective date of 2.1.23 by Mutual of Omaha Rx Plan that will automatically disenroll me from ***** Plan effective 2.1.23. Also, I paid premiums for January and February 2023 for $***** for each month. Anothe complaint was filed on Medicare's website about effective date of 2.1.23 with Mutual of Omaha Rx Plan.

On Friday 9, 2023, I contacted Mutual of Omaha about the Long Term Care Payment. I asked if I could pay by debit card as the payment didn't go through. I was told I couldn't pay with a debit/credit card and I would have to submit a new check as they will not re-submit the check. On Monday February 13, 2023, Mutual of Omaha resubmitted the payment, which caused my account to have a return check fee on my account. When I spoke with Mutual of Omaha on February 13, 2023. The company claim the check was not re-deposited. I informed the company I spoke with my bank and they confirmed Mutual of Omaha re-deposited my check. I would like my money returned.Business Response

I called to cancel my policy with Mutual of Omaha in October of 2022. I found out that they didn't cancel my 2 policies so I called them again because they took money out of my bank account. I complained and told them to cancel the policies again. They did not refund my money. Now I just found out that they did not cancel my policies and are still taking money out of my bank account. They owe me a refund going back to October 2022 and cancel the policies.Initial Complaint

My husband, Jason ********, was injured at work a little over a year ago. He has been on long-term disability through Mutual of Omaha since the Spring of 2022. The person who is handling the account is Christina *******. *** ** *** ***** ** ************* **** ** **** ** ******** ********* *** ********* ** **** ********* ****** ** ***** *****. I have tried to reach her for the past month to no avail. And this month when my husband's disability comes in it is $*** LESS than it has been, or it should be! Again, I have called and emailed Christina to get an answer about what is happening with my husband's disability. WE RELY ON HIS MONTHLY DISABILITY! Now, I am struggling to make arrangements for payments because we did not get the whole amount. This looks bad on the whole company, Mutual of Omaha. Christina ******* is a representative of theirs and when she cannot take the time to answer questions or apprise us of the account status, then she is not doing her job correctly. ** *** ** ***** **** ** ***** ****** *** **** ** ****** ** ***** *** ***** ****** **** *** ** ***** *** ******* * **** **********. I tried to contact someone, anyone, at Mutual of Omaha to report this directly to them but was unable to find a usable number.Initial Complaint

Complaint: ********
I am rejecting this response because:
There was and is no response from them,,, We need some type of explanation and statement that we are not responsible for these FRAUD Charges, AND that our dis-information is severed from their fraud billingSince they must think this is a joke, we are thinking about civil Representation as this is the start of fraud
remember they ghosted you as well, how does that feel

I am currently waiting on the status of my Long Term Care disability insurance with Mutual of Omaha. They were delaying the processing of my claim. They don't even communicate with me so I can help gather information they need to process the claim. They don't return calls or email. I have been without any income since November of last year and we hardly have any food during the holidays. Please help us.Business Response

Multiple attempts have been made with Mutual of Omaha Mortgage to obtain a payoff statement for reverse mortgage on my home that is to be sold to ********. First, they took 2 days to even find my account number. Then they said the request for payoff was received from my title company on October 13, 2022. After not receiving the needed info to sell, they say the 2 times the request that was sent by my title company were never received by Mutual of Omaha even though I was e-mailed a confirmation of receipt of request from Mutual of Omaha Mortgage. The date of closing has past now and still no payoff information has been received by the title company. This delay and refusal to cooperate by Mutual of Omaha Mortgage has caused a possibly insurmountable problem. I just want Mutual of Omaha Mortgage to deliver my payoff form to the title company. Title company contact is: Aisha ********. E-mail: ***************************** Phone: ************ Please help me obtain the needed information. Thank you. Paula ******
