This is more of a Special Work Jobs program than a Healthcare service. I take a lot of medications and need good food to help me with the medicines but the caregivers can't cook! It seems like I'm paying $20 - $35 per hour for someone to talk with, watch movies with or do appointments with. I could take the same cost and get real help and Healthcare from someone who knows what they are doing from a real Healthcare service provider but I would have to pay for the services that my Carelinx benefits are supposed to be helping me with. Carelinx forgets I am seniorly sick and money is not everything or there are some things more important than money!

This is a scam. It's been 3 weeks and I never heard back. I asked for a refund of the $35 and they said no refunds. They will ask you to pay the $35 upfront, then they say they will find a care giver, which never happens.

Not user-friendly at all.

I have been trying to get paid for a couple of hours that I worked . Close to 30 hours . I spoke with a couple of people and nothing has been done they all give me the run around . I’ve submitted my timesheets a couple of times and they keep rejecting them . They never call you to tell you this . You have to be on top of your pay otherwise no one will ever call you to tell you why they are rejecting your timesheet .

CareLinx has been one of the most frustrating processes I have ever experienced. Signing up went perfect -- thank you, Angel. Since then, which was over a month ago, the process has not worked. We were provided 2 caregiver contacts in the beginning. The first did not work on our schedule, and this info was in our profile. The second was perfect at the interview, but 1.5 hours late on day 1 with an unbelievable excuse, performed 2 hours of lackadaisical work, and called it a day. Day 2 was a no-phone/no-show. Then trying to work with the company and web-site? We have yet to speak with our Care Advisor/Navigator since the 2 contacts were provided in the beginning. 4 different phone numbers, 5 unanswered voice mails, and cut off multiple times after being on-hold for 10 minutes. The website just doesn't work; it's been impossible to make any connections that way. Today we called the contact number provided by our Care Advisor, and it goes to a pool because we were never provided her extension. On-hold for 15+ minutes, and got a voice for the first time since initial registration. Did get the extension number that we needed, but then got forwarded to another queue, which just hung up after 10 minutes of "we'll be right with you". So just called back and used the extension number -- even with that, back into the queue to get hung up on after another 10 minutes of "we'll be right with you".

Hello Jim, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We sincerely apologize for the frustrations you've encountered, and we appreciate your patience throughout this process. We are glad to hear that your initial sign-up went smoothly with Angel’s assistance. However, it’s concerning to learn about the difficulties you’ve faced since then, particularly with caregiver reliability and communication. Please know that we take your feedback seriously. We understand the importance of having a caregiver who meets your scheduling needs and performs effectively. We will review your case and caregiver feedback to address these concerns with the individuals involved and to ensure that what we can control, results in a more consistent and responsive support experience moving forward. Regarding the challenges you faced with reaching our team, we are actively working to improve our communication processes. We recognize how frustrating it can be to navigate phone systems and wait for assistance, and we are committed to addressing these issues. Please note that changes to insurance specifications require a care plan task tied to an ADL (activity of daily living) to compliment the light housekeeping request. Your Advisor can work with you to determine the updated care needs that will meet the insurance requirements to move forward. We would like to follow up with you directly to resolve your concerns and find a suitable caregiver replacement and assist you more effectively. We will have a Care Advisor outreach you within the next 24-48 business hours to assist further.

I was looking for in-home care for my mother. I signed up to test the waters and see if this service would meet our needs. I received a text message the next day from a representative asking for a good time to discuss how they can help find a caregiver. This was on a Saturday so I decided to put it on the backburner as I was busy and I'd reach out on Monday. An hour later I received another text asking if I'm still looking for assistance finding a caregiver. When I didn't respond, the phone calls began. After ignoring the first one, I answered the second and explained I wasn't going to do business with a company this aggressive. I hung up and they immediately called back. Looking for care for a loved one shouldn't be the same experience as shopping for furniture or a new car.

I have been waiting 4 weeks to get an advisor. When I call I am on hold for 15 minutes then dropped. I had someone on the phone today, but the back ground noise, a rooster, made it impossible to hear. The person hung up when I complained. But before that she admitted she was on a farm in Georgia. I still have received zero care and I believe this company has no intention of being in business much longer because they behave as if they have already gone out of business. I have wasted probably 40 hours dealing with them. They don’t deserve any stars.

Hi Mitchell, Thank you so much for sharing your concerns with us. I wanted to clarify that your Advisor was assigned to your family on the day you enrolled in this benefit program. Since your last conversation in mid-September, she’s tried reaching out to you and your wife on six different occasions to help with your family's care needs. Unfortunately, she’s had trouble connecting, as the calls either rang continuously, went to voicemail, or were disconnected. She’s been dialing the same numbers we have on file, which match the number linked to this review. We always strive to provide the best support possible and truly appreciate your feedback about the background noise. We’ll look into it and address it with our team. When you're ready, feel free to reach out to your Advisor by calling our Toll-Free number at (844) 636-4592 ext. 2057. If she’s on another call, one of our other dedicated Advisors will be more than happy to assist you. Thank you for your understanding, and we’re here to continue supporting you and your family through this caregiving journey
