How it works for Medicare

You press one button. We press all of theirs.

1

Tell us why you're calling

Coverage, claims, cards, plan questions. One line is enough — it tells our system which department queue to enter.

2

We dial and navigate the Medicare menu

The call runs on our cloud lines. Your phone stays completely free.

3

We wait. However long it takes.

Hold queues that are often 30–90 minutes at peak don't scare a machine. Busy signal? We redial automatically.

Human answers → your phone rings

We bridge you in at the exact moment a live agent is on the line. You talk for the minutes that matter, not the hours that don't.

FAQ

Medicare hold questions

How long is the Medicare hold time right now?

Callers report that reaching a live person at Medicare is often 30–90 minutes at peak. It varies by day, season and department — which is exactly why letting a machine absorb the wait beats guessing.

How do I skip the Medicare hold queue?

Start a call with HoldGone. We dial Medicare, navigate the menu, hold your place in the queue, and ring your phone only when a human is already on the line.

What if Medicare never picks up?

Then you don't pay. We retry later at no extra cost, or refund your $5 entirely. We only earn when you talk to a person.
