MASSHEALTH MEMBER ELIGIBILITY REDETERMINATION
In response to the COVID-19 public health emergency and consistent with federal continuous coverage requirements, MassHealth put protections in place that prevented members’ MassHealth coverage from ending during the COVID-19 emergency. Beginning April 1, 2023, continuous coverage requirements will end. All MassHeath members will have to renew their health coverage to ensure they still qualify for their current benefit. Renewals will take place over 12 months. MassHealth will communicate to members in two phases.
1) MassHealth will notify all members to prepare for renewal.
- Update your contact information
- Report any household changes
- Create a MA Login Account
- Read all mail from MassHealth
2) MassHealth will educate members about how to renew coverage and will directly outreach to members when selected for renewal to make sure they complete their renewal and know options for other affordable health coverage, if applicable.
- Update your information with MassHealth
- Check your mail for a blue envelope from MassHealth
- Respond to MassHealth before the deadline
Please be sure to complete your renewal with MassHealth when instructed to do so to avoid gaps or loss of your health coverage.
