KelseyCare Member Spreads the Word to Coworkers About How Happy She Is with Her Healthcare Plan and Doctors
Irma Meadows is a bit of a KelseyCare evangelist. A member for about a year and half, she’s been singing the plan’s praises to her city of Pearland coworkers.
Two of her coworkers have switched to KelseyCare as a result of Irma’s recommendation.
“I told them, ‘KelseyCare is a terrific plan, Kelsey-Seybold is a wonderful clinic and the doctors are awesome’ – like Dr. Cecilia Lowder who’s been my doctor since she joined Kelsey-Seybold in 1999. I’m so pleased to have ready-access to so many wonderful Kelsey-Seybold doctors through KelseyCare. I wouldn’t go anywhere else,” Irma said.
‘Extremely Affordable’ Plan
Irma especially likes the cost of the plan, describing it as “extremely affordable.”
She also appreciates the Electronic Medical Record (EMR) used by Kelsey-Seybold physicians and views it as a cost-saver.
“My doctors can see everything at one time. For example, when I went to Dr. Anup Shah for shoulder surgery, I needed some blood work and the laboratory was right there. Then later, I had an appointment with my gynecologist who said she didn’t have to order blood work because she saw on my EMR that Dr. Shah had already done so. I didn’t have to re-do the same test and pay another copay. So, the EMR definitely cuts down on repetitive testing and cost,” Irma observed.
Staying with Her Kelsey-Seybold Doctors
Irma, who’s retiring in April 2014, is already looking into KelseyCare Advantage, Houston’s only 5-star rated Medicare plan.
“Dr. Shah recommended I go with KelseyCare Advantage,” Irma said. “That’s what I intend to do because I want to stick with my Kelsey-Seybold doctors. I could not be happier with my doctors, the quality care I receive and the coverage I have.”
