Once my son is approved for medicaid how often do we have to reapply?

Question

How often do I need to reapply for my son to recieve medicaid benefits?

Answer 1

Once a year - you should get renewal papers about six weeks before your anniversary date. Fill them out and send them back as soon as possible - this way there's no lapse in the coverage. (If you don't file the renewal papers on time and your coverage lapses, you are responsible for paying the bills.)

Answer 2

you don't have to keep reapplying. they will send you letters telling you that they need you to send them certain items like proof of no income or a copy of the baby's SS card, or things like that. you will get a monthly statement telling you that you will still receive benefits for your son. at least that is the way it is in Kentucky.

hope this helps

Once a year. At the end of the year they will send you a notice and you will have to send in your income again to make sure you still qualify.
