You can submit an application or renewal for Medicaid using the ACCESS HRA website from anywhere and at any time.
Medicaid renewal rules have changed. If you do not submit your Medicaid renewal by the date on your HRA notice, you will lose your coverage and need to reapply.
If you have a disability, or are blind or low vision, you can also get free help in-person or over the phone to apply for or renew Medicaid coverage and apply for financial assistance programs for Medicare.
Assistance is available at Medicaid Offices or community enrollment sites.
