The End of Continuous Medicaid Coverage and How You Can Help

Last updated on

The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) wants to remind partners of the End of Continuous Medicaid Coverage and how you can support members in renewing their benefits. In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the federal government declared a public health emergency (PHE) and passed a law that allowed Medicaid users to automatically keep their Medicaid coverage (continuous Medicaid).

Based on federal law, continuous Medicaid eligibility ended on March 31, 2023. Eligible recipients have to renew their benefits to make sure coverage continues. Failure to respond to renewal or information requests from HHS could mean loss of coverage.

To learn more, review the Medicaid Ambassador Toolkit from HHSC to understand how you can provide guidance, help and resources to Medicaid eligible clients.
