A message to Heath Net of California Medicare Group members

Wellcare By Health Net will have a resolution to your complaint no later than 30 days after your submission. If we need more information and the delay is in your best interest or if you ask for more time, we can take up to 14 more calendar days (44 calendar days total) to answer your complaint.

However, if we take this extension, we will notify you or your representative. We can usually help you right away or at the most within a few days. If you are making a complaint because we denied your request for a "fast coverage decision" or a "fast appeal", we will automatically give you a "fast" complaint. If you have a "fast" complaint, it means we will give you an answer within 24 hours.

If you need any help, please call us at 1-800-275-4737 (TTY: 711). From October 1 to March 31, you can call us 7 days a week from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. From April 1 to September 30, you can call us Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. A messaging system is used after hours, weekends, and on federal holidays. You can also visit Wellcare by Health Net.
