"Hey sexy guy" wrong number

TALLAHASSEE -- If you're a member of the AvMed health-maintenance organization, you might not want to use the customer-service phone number on your new membership card just yet.

The Department of Management Services said today AvMed sent about 21,000 cards to subscribers with the wrong toll-free number for reaching a service representative dedicated to State of Florida employees. The correct number is (888) 762-8633 but the cards listed an (800) prefix.

That gets you to "intimate encounters," where the recorded voice of a giggling woman starts out, "Hey, sexy guy...."

Members will receive corrected membership cards, with the triple-8 prefix, in the next week or 10 days.

"We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you," AmMed's member-service department said in a letter to all of the HMO's members. The letter listed only the right number and didn't say what happens if you dial the one listed on all those cards.

DMS stressed that the mailing of the letters and processing of new member cards is being done at AvMed's expense, not the state's.
