I have had this number blocked for over a year now because they have been trying to call me at least three times a day!! Apparently, if you work for the Federal Government as I do, and have insurance through the Federal Employee Program, you MUST talk to them!!

There is no charge to you, but your insurance company pays Healthways $357 a month which is then deducted from your lifetime benefits. I had successfully voided talking to them via phone for 3 years and then they ambushed me at my doctor's office with his cooperation. VERY deceitful and very disturbing from a privacy point of view.

Tell them they're calling your cell and point out to them that auto dialing a cell phone is an automatic $11k fine per call, and that you'll report them to the FTC for multiple calls if they don't IMMEDIATELY remove you from their auto-dialer.Works for me every time.

You do not have to talk to them. I received the same letter from them using BC/BS letterhead. If they were really BC/BS they would know the medication you are taking. Keep in mind that Healthways is a for profit company. If the partnership between Healthways and BC/BS is ever dissolved Healthways has information on you which they can sell because you voluntarily provided it to them. Keep you health issues and medication between you and your doctor.

then why don't they leave a message

They called a little while ago and they never even identified who they were. They even mentioned my husband's name. We are not calling them back because we don't know anything about them.

Hi

You need to ask to be taken off the automatic dialer. That, unfortunately, is a difficult request for this heath company. I have oxford but since a blue cross person picked up the phone she couldnt help me and is forwarded my request to an oxford person.ridiculous

Spoke to a woman who said she was trying to sign me up with a nurse service covered by BCBS CareFirst. She told me I could not "opt out" because I would not tell her my address and date of birth.

Called 3-4 times, never left a message. ( I don't answer numbers I don't recognize). Problem is they call at horrible times, like right in the middle of dinner time, or after 9:00 at night!
