Oak street health and Aetna

[Medicare bro]

Just called into member services with my client on the phone. At the end the guy asked if the member would be interested in learning more about Oak street health. So I told the member to say yes. And guess what happened?!?! A sales rep for Oak Street health came on and wanted to sell my client a plan. Just an FYI and something to be aware of.

I literally just lost a client who switched to Oak Street Health, now I know why. I just happen to call my client who had no idea she was changing agents.
