File:Medicaid Renewals & You- featuring HHS Region 5 Regional Director Cabonargi - Oct 2023 - Part 1 of 1.webm

English: Midwestern states are now contacting individuals to see if they are eligible for Medicaid and CHIP. If an individual is no longer eligible for Medicaid or CHIP, they can transition to another form of health insurance coverage, such as finding coverage on HealthCare.gov, Medicare, or employer-sponsored insurance coverage. Over the next 12 months, states will spread out renewals, which means not everyone will have their Medicaid and CHIP coverage renewed at the same time. Each state has a different renewal timeline, and you can find that timeline on Medicaid.gov/unwinding under the Planning Tools & Templates section. If you have received a renewal from your state Medicaid or CHIP program, please read the letter. After reading the letter, complete your renewal form. Fill out the form, and return it back to your state Medicaid or CHIP program right away to help avoid a gap in coverage. We are asking parents to still complete the renewal form as their kids may still be eligible for Medicaid or CHIP even if they are not. After completing the renewal form, look out for follow-up information from your state about your coverage. States will let people know if they are no longer eligible for Medicaid and CHIP and when their coverage will end.
