Letter to Families Regarding Medicaid Renewals
Does your family receive Medicaid or CHIP health insurance? Make sure you renew when it’s time to keep your coverage if you’re still eligible. Your children may qualify for CHIP benefits even if adults in your family aren’t eligible for Medicaid.
Medicaid and CHIP coverage continued during the COVID-19 public health emergency through a federal law preventing anyone from losing those benefits. Continuous coverage for Medicaid and CHIP recipients ended in March 2023.
Here are three steps you can take:
- If you don’t already have one, create an online account at YourTexasBenefits.com or on the Your Texas Benefits mobile app.
- Report any changes, such as address or contact information, as soon as possible.
- Complete and return renewal packets or requests for information by the due date listed. If you have a Your Texas Benefits account and have signed up for electronic notices, your renewal notice will be sent electronically. If you don’t have an account, notices will be mailed in a yellow envelope with “Action Required” printed in red.
