Everyone has a role to play to keep people covered as Idaho conducts Medicaid renewals. What Can You Do?
Download the “All Hands-on-Deck” flyer.
Let people with Medicaid and CHIP coverage know they need to:
- RESPOND to the Medicaid/CHIP renewal form when it arrives to keep your coverage.
- PARENTS should respond even if you don’t think you’re eligible – your kids could still be eligible!
- CONSIDER OTHER COVERAGE OPTIONS: If you are no longer eligible for Medicaid or CHIP, check if you can get coverage through your employer, through Your Health Idaho (YHI) at yourhealthidaho.org, or through Medicare.
Getting the word out about Medicaid renewals is an all-hands-on-deck effort, and we are asking for help from our partners. We urge state and local elected officials, health plans, providers, and others in the public and private sectors to:
- SPREAD THE WORD: getting the message out to Medicaid and CHIP enrollees throughout Idaho is crucial to ensuring they maintain their health coverage.
- HELP PEOPLE WITH THE RENEWAL PROCESS: Partner with Idaho Medicaid/CHIP to provide direct assistance to individuals and families with completing the renewal form.
