SPRINGFIELD, Mo. — Medicaid recipients should be on the lookout for a letter in the mail, reminding them to renew their healthcare benefits.
According to a press release from the Springfield-Greene County Health Department, continuous re-enrollment for Medicaid ended March 31, meaning those receiving benefits will have to complete the renewal process each year to ensure they still qualify.
All Medicaid recipients, including children, must be evaluated for eligibility by the anniversary of when their Medicaid coverage first began to avoid disruption in their coverage. For some Missouri residents, this could be as soon as June 2023.
