Enhanced ePASS Accounts
for NC Medicaid Beneficiaries
| |
|
ePASS is North Carolina’s secure self-service website where beneficiaries can apply for various benefits, view case details, renew their Medicaid and update their information without having to visit or contact their local Department of Social Services.
NC Medicaid encourages beneficiaries to create an enhanced ePASS account where they can make sure their contact information is correct and make any updates without having to go through their local DSS.
Correct addresses ensure that beneficiaries receive information about how the end of the federal COVID-19 Public Health Emergency affects their eligibility for Medicaid benefits and other ways to receive health care (e.g., through the marketplace). Although CMS has not announced a date for the end of the PHE, it is anticipated to happen in 2023.
To help beneficiaries create an ePASS account, fact sheets are available with step-by-step instructions in English and Spanish.

Updated Vaccine Dose for Kids Under 5 & Free Telemedicine for All | |
|
NCDHHS is launching a time-limited program in partnership with StarMed Healthcare to provide free access to telemedicine screenings for COVID-19 treatment for North Carolinians who test positive. This program is available now until funding runs out, which is expected to be around mid-March.
People who test positive for COVID-19 with an at-home test or other method can set up an appointment online at https://starmed.care/nc/ or call 704-941-6000, seven days a week from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. There is no cost to the patient. Read our press release for more information.
Key facts:
- This service is available regardless of insurance status and IDs are not required. If you do not have insurance, you will not be charged for your appointment.
- If you have insurance, StarMed will bill your health plan and NCDHHS will pay for any additional balance.
- Appointments are available in English, Spanish and more than 200 other languages through an on-demand interpretation service. American Sign Language interpretation is also available.
- If the patient is eligible for antiviral treatment, such as Paxlovid, the provider will send a prescription to the patient’s desired pharmacy. There is also an option to mail order the medication. Oral antiviral pills are available at no cost to the patient.
- The telemedicine program will last until funding runs out, which is estimated to be about mid-March.
After a positive test, early treatment is key to avoiding severe illness and hospitalizations, and treatment may even reduce complications from post-COVID conditions, also called long COVID.
Everyone, especially people at high risk of getting very sick from COVID-19, should have
a plan to contact a health care provider right away if they test positive. This telemedicine program offers another option for quick access to lifesaving treatments. Please help spread the word in your communities:
Updated COVID-19 Vaccine Dose Now Available for Kids 6 Months to 4 Years: Most children 6 months to 4 years are now eligible for their updated COVID-19 vaccine, which offers the most up-to-date protection against COVID-19 variants. These vaccine doses are becoming available in North Carolina this week following the Food and Drug Administration’s emergency use authorization and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s recommendation.
The updated vaccine is a bivalent vaccine that targets both the original coronavirus strain and Omicron variants. Like previous COVID-19 shots, children 6 months through 4 years get a smaller dose of this updated vaccine than other age groups. Children under 5 should get the same vaccine brand for all recommended doses. Children are eligible for the updated dose of their COVID-19 vaccine if they are:
- 6 months to 5 years and got their last dose of a Moderna vaccine at least two months ago
- 6 months to 4 years who already had two doses of the Pfizer vaccine and are ready for their third dose
Children 6 months and older may be able to get the updated COVID-19 vaccine and other routine vaccines they are due for at the same visit, including during routine checkups. Parents should talk with a health care provider to make sure their child is up to date on COVID-19 and other vaccines. The updated vaccine, like all COVID-19 vaccines, is safe to get alongside the annual flu shot.
As we spend more time gathering indoors this winter, it’s important that everyone stays up to date on their COVID-19 vaccines to help protect against serious illness, hospitalization, death, and long-term complications from the virus.
We need your help to make sure every North Carolinian has easy access to the information they need to protect themselves and others. Please share the resources below with the communities you serve:
Currently, COVID-19 vaccines are still free to everyone through federal funding, regardless of insurance or immigration status. When federal funding ends, COVID-19 vaccines will be available like flu shots and other routine vaccinations but may no longer be free for everyone. Flu vaccines are often available at little to no cost. To learn more about the COVID-19 vaccines including nearby providers, visit MySpot.nc.gov or contact the CDC-INFO Contact Center at 800-CDC-INFO.

Topic: Healthcare Decision-Making and Advance Care Planning with People who Use Disability Services: It’s Not Just About End of Life!
Presenter: Leigh Ann Kingsbury, Principal, InLeadS Consulting
Description: Advance Care Planning and advance directives are not just about end of life. Advance Care Planning is a way to help everyone ensure that their values and wishes about their personal quality of life, their health, and their desires for healthcare are known, and that someone is identified to honor those values and wishes, should the person be unable to speak for themselves. People with disabilities and older adults have the right to make decisions about their lives, at all stages of their lives, with the kind of support they want. One way to help people be in charge of their decisions is to support development of living wills, and identification of healthcare power of attorneys. This webinar will:
· Review the need for advance care planning as part of everyone’s life-planning processes, and not just an end-of-life consideration
· Provide a high-level review of the skills needed to develop advance care plans
· Address the continuum of decision-making authority
· Provide resources for training and guidance in helping people develop advance care plans

Awareness Month - January | |
- National Slavery & Human Trafficking Prevention Month - Jan. 1, 2023 - Jan. 31, 2023
-
The month of January was first declared as such in 2010 by the then President of the USA, Barack Obama. Slavery and human trafficking is often considered a historic problem but sadly it is an issue which is growing on a worldwide basis and one which many people in our communities could be vulnerable to. A highly lucrative business, albeit a criminal one, here in the USA we are seeing an increase in the number of instances reported and it for these reasons that the awareness raising prevention month was established.
- Martin Luther King Day - Jan. 16, 2023
- Martin Luther King Day celebrates life and accomplishments of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. MLK promoted Civil Rights through nonviolent civil disobedience. He is perhaps best known for his "I Have A Dream" speech in 1963. He was assassinated in 1968. Martin Luther King, Jr. day became a federally recognized holiday in 1983. The first year this holiday was observed was 1986, and not by all states. In 2000, it became a nationally observed holiday in all states. Martin Luther King Jr. Day is observed annually on the third Monday of January.
