Don't Risk a Loss in Your Medicaid Coverage
If you receive both Medicaid and Medicare and live in the state of Pennsylvania, you need to take steps to verify your information with the state to ensure you continue to receive health care coverage.
Verfiy Your Information
Once the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency ended, state agencies began evaluating each person’s Medicaid eligibility. People with Medicaid benefits could lose their coverage if they don’t provide the information necessary to verify their income or residency.
If you are a member of Jefferson Health Plans Medicare and also receive Medicaid benefits, you should take the following steps to make sure you receive your Medicaid renewal application paperwork.
- Make sure your contact information is up to date.
- In Pennsylvania, notify your local County Assistance Office or visit the COMPASS website to indicate an address change
- In New Jersey, visit the Stay Covered NJ webpage
- Check your mail for a letter about your Medicaid coverage. This letter will let you know when you need to complete your application to see if you still qualify for Medicaid benefits.
- Complete and return your renewal application on time. Return your eligibility application by the deadline to avoid the loss of your Medicaid coverage.
You could lose coverage if you do not receive and complete your renewal form.
