As COVID-19 becomes less of a threat, states will restart yearly Medicaid and Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) eligibility reviews. This means your state will use the information they have to decide if you or your family member(s) still qualify for Medicaid or CHIP coverage. If your state needs more information from you to make a coverage decision, they’ll send you a renewal letter in the mail. Most children can still be covered through the Children’s Health Insurance Program. 
For details, check your Medicaid notice or contact your state Medicaid office at the links below.

Get ready to renew now

Here are some things you can do to prepare for the renewal process:

  1. Update your contact information - Make sure your state has your current mailing address, phone number, email, or other contact information. This way, they’ll be able to contact you about your Medicaid or CHIP coverage.
  2. Check your mail - Your state will mail you a letter about your coverage. This letter will let you know if you need to complete a renewal form to see if you still qualify for Medicaid or CHIP.
  3. Complete your renewal form (if you get one) - Fill out the form and return it to your state right away to help avoid a gap in your coverage.

If you no longer qualify for Medicaid or CHIP

You may be able to buy a health plan through the Health Insurance Marketplace®, and get help paying for it. Marketplace plans are:

  • 4 out of 5 enrollees can find plans that cost less than $10 a month.
  • Plans cover things like prescription drugs, doctor visits, urgent care, hospital visits, and more.

If you’re eligible, you may be able to sign up for Medicare or change your current Medicare coverage. Get started with Medicare.

For More Help

  • Contact your state Medicaid office for more information about Medicaid or CHIP renewal. You can find links to state contacts below.
  • Call the Marketplace Call Center at 1-800-318-2596 to get details about Marketplace coverage. TTY users can call 1-855-889-4325.  

Say no to scams 
Don’t share your personal information or give money to anyone saying you have to pay them to keep Medicaid or CHIP coverage or apply for Marketplace coverage. Your state and the Marketplace will never threaten you or anyone in your household or ask for your credit card information or payment to keep or qualify for health coverage.

Report it if someone calls, emails, or texts you asking for:

  • Your personal information (like your Social Security Number)
  • Money (like credit card payment, gift cards, cash, prepaid debit card, or cryptocurrency)
  • Or, if they threaten you or anyone in your household with legal action

Report it to the Federal Trade Commission. Also contact your local police department. 
Visit HealthCare.gov to learn more about keeping your information safe.
