Do you have health insurance through Medicaid (known as MaineCare in Maine and NH Medicaid in New Hampshire)? Be sure to renew so you can continue to receive the care you need.
NEW: Medicaid renewal requirement
During the COVID-19 pandemic, some Medicaid requirements were temporarily suspended to ensure access to care. Now, Medicaid is restarting the normal renewal process. That means you must renew your MaineCare or NH Medicaid coverage, or risk losing benefits. The first step is to make sure your contact information is up to date, especially if your address has changed since 2020.
- Step 1: Update your contact information
- In Maine, visit MyMaineConnection.gov or call 1-855-797-4357 (Opt 1)
- In New Hampshire, visit NHeasy.NH.gov or call 1-844-ASK-DHHS
- Step 2: Keep an eye out for your renewal form which will arrive via email or mail
- Complete and return the renewal form before the listed due date. Renewals will be sent by mail or email between April 2023 and May 2024.
