Medicaid: News for Members
Renewal letters will have information for each household member
Each year, we send you a letter to tell you about renewing your benefits. If we have enough information to renew you automatically, we send an administrative renewal letter (PDF). If we need you to take action, we send a regular renewal letter (PDF). Starting in April, the letters we send will tell you the renewal status of each person in your household and the next steps they need to take. Read more about health care renewals.
