medicaid and scheduling an obgyn appt

[brittanyhinch]

How long is the normal wait time to be called back?  I called the office yesterday of the obgyn that accepts medicaid in my area.  The receptionist took my name and number and tools me to wait for a call back because the Dr was busy. I was told by my local hospital to get seen immediately by an obgyn. Should I call the doctor at the obgyn clinic back today and explain my case to the receptionist? Thanks for any feedback

i would call them again tomorrow. tell them that you were seen in your hospital and they said you needed to be seen asap. it shouldnt take that long for them to call you back. if i were you i would definatley call them again.

My medicaid is fully accepted already. I was just wondering at the offices to get an appointment..

It normally doesn't take long. If u apply for medicaid thru the health department they will give u a piece of paper with a Number on it and set u up an appointment with an ob. Whichever ob u get call and hound them to get u in early and u should be in in no time. It took me 2 weeks to get my medicaid fully accepted accepted nd get my card

I'd call back until you get an appointment or at least talk to the doctor or the nurse.
