HOW TO KEEP COVERAGE

In order to keep your Medicaid coverage, make sure to keep your address up to date so they can continue sending your insurance cards.

After you leave foster care, you will have to register with Medicaid in your own name and keep up with any changes to your account.

Ohio Medicaid provides coverage in OHIO ONLY. If you move, go on a trip, or get treated outside of Ohio, your Medicaid will not cover you.

Each year you will be sent a Medicaid Recertification Letter. The letter will ask if anything has changed, such as your address or a change in your incarceration status. You will need to let them know if anything has changed. If nothing has changed, you will still get services. You can also update your address online at:
