MESSA’s Member Service Center, field reps provide peace of mind
MESSA understands how important it is for you to connect with the students and the communities you serve. You welcome your students every day with enthusiasm, patience and warm smiles. You also work to make sure our communities are safe and operating properly.
We know it’s stressful at times. We know it’s challenging. That’s why we understand how important it is to provide you with peace of mind when you reach out to MESSA.
MESSA’s Member Service Center is staffed with friendly, knowledgeable specialists who can answer any questions you may have — big or small.
Call our East Lansing-based Member Service Center at 800-336-0013 to get the help you need. And get this — when you call, you’ll speak with an actual human being.
“My family has experienced the overwhelming nature of health care firsthand,” said Erin Marshall, a MESSA member service specialist. “It can be exhausting and confusing. I know that MESSA medical coverage has immense value, and I want our members to experience the sense of relief that comes with understanding the details of their benefits. Knowing that my conversations with members can offer clarity and reassurance when they need it most, is incredibly meaningful to me.”
You can also connect with us via live chat or send a secure message from your MyMESSA account or the MESSA app. And guess what? There’s an actual human being on the other end of the digital connection, too. Not some chat bot.
