MEVS switch vendors or Value Added Networks (VANS) are private companies that provide current online Medicaid eligibility information, and other interactive transactions. Medicaid providers may select the switch vendor of their choice and will contract with this vendor to provide the agreed upon services. The differences in switch vendors lies in that they provide a large array of products available at various price ranges. Eligibility transactions may be submitted using PC software supplied by the switch vendor, via a point of sale device similar to those used for credit card transactions, over the telephone using a voice response system, or other possibilities depending on what the switch vendor offers.
For a complete list of current switch vendors available in the state of Florida and their telephone numbers, see the list below.
