An enrollment broker is an individual or entity that provides unbiased education and enrollment services to help Medicaid beneficiaries select health plans that are most appropriate for them. Under the Wisconsin Enrollment Broker contract, MAXIMUS will serve the members of the state's managed care programs, Medicaid SSI (Supplemental Security Income) and BadgerCare Plus. MAXIMUS professionals will provide member call center support, including choice counseling and enrollment in a Health Maintenance Organization (HMO), through multichannel communications. The Company will inform and educate members regarding choice options, as well as data entry of enrollment choices and exemption/disenrollments in the state's Medicaid Management Information System (MMIS). In addition, MAXIMUS will be responsible for tracking and reporting on call center statistics, to further improve operations and customer experience.

"MAXIMUS has proven experience in providing customer contact operations to nearly 45 million state Medicaid beneficiaries across the country, demonstrating our status as a market leader for Medicaid.
