Important Information about the End of Continuous Eligibility
The Shapiro Administration and the Department of Human Services (DHS) are urging anyone enrolled in Medical Assistance to make sure their contact information is correct so they can receive timely updates about their benefits. Under new federal law, continuous MA eligibility will be separated from the public health emergency and will end on April 1, 2021.
Continuous eligibility means that many MA beneficiaries are out of synch with renewal and redetermination requirements and timelines.
