How to renew
Download helpful tips brochure
It's important to renew your CHIP/Children's Medicaid coverage to prevent a lapse in coverage.
Two months before your coverage is due to end you will be mailed a renewal packet that contains an application with some of your information already filled in.
- Update information as needed.
- Fill in all the questions that have been left blank.
- Make sure to send in copies of at least one paycheck stub or other document reflecting each family member's income and expenses.
- Sign and date the application then send it in using the postage-paid return address envelope.
Missing information or documents may cause a delay in processing your application.
Call 1-877-KIDS-NOW (1-877-543-7669) to get help renewing your coverage.
