Starting April 1, 2023, states will restart yearly Medicaid and Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) eligibility reviews.  This means states will use the information they have to decide if family members still qualify for Medicaid or CHIP coverage. Most children can still be covered through CHIP.  If a state needs more information to make a coverage decision, they’ll send a renewal letter in the mail, so it’s important for anyone who has moved that their contact information remains up-to-date.

Get ready to renew now

Here are three easy steps families can take to prepare for the renewal process:

  1. Update their contact information
  2. Check their mail
  3. Complete their renewal form (if they get one)
