The federal government will end the Medicaid continuation coverage requirement on March 31, and the Texas Health and Human Services Commission notifies Medicaid recipients that they will need to redetermine their eligibility for the program.
The commission urges all grantees to ensure that their contact information is correct at YourTexasBenefits.com or update it.
The commission has been preparing for this and is sending notices to grantees to alert them to the change in federal requirements. Grantees will be receiving renewal packets or information requests in the mail in the coming weeks. They are encouraged to register and log in at YourTexasBenefits.comto verify that all information is up to date and opt-in to receive electronic notifications through your online account or the Your Texas Benefits mobile app.
The commission is hiring additional staff to verify eligibility requirements and has created an Ambassador Program to support beneficiaries and prepare for the end of the continuous coverage requirement. During the 12-month renewal period, beneficiaries who respond to the commission's renewal packets or requests for information will continue to receive Medicaid coverage until the commission completes the redetermination process to confirm their eligibility for continued benefits.
Beneficiaries should report any changes in their circumstances (address, telephone number, pregnancy, or changes in household members) as soon as possible through YourTexasBenefits.comby mail, fax, by calling 211 and selecting option 2, or by visiting a local office or community partner.
