Do you have compassion, good communication skills, and at least three hours a week to help Kansas Medicaid applicants and members? The KanCare Ombudsman Volunteer Program is currently taking applications in the Wichita area for volunteers interested in helping Kansas Medicaid stakeholders resolve problems regarding their services, coverage, access and rights.
Trained Ombudsman Volunteers are the heart of this program. You don’t have to be an expert on Medicaid to volunteer; you will learn as you help others. Please note, shifts are only available during business hours of M-F, 9am-4pm.
Volunteers will assist us with updating statewide resources and outreach materials. You'll need to be comfortable with basic Microsoft products & internet navigation. You'll need to be comfortable making phone calls and sending emails. You will represent our office to the community of KanCare members, applicants, and providers.
Consider being a part of our team. Let’s work together to help Kansas Medicaid stakeholders get their questions answered.
