NEW HEALTH INSURANCE OPTIONS

Those who get health care coverage through Medicaid might be at risk of losing coverage over the next year. Many people who will no longer qualify for Medicaid coverage can turn to the Affordable Care Act’s marketplace, where they’ll find health care coverage options that may cost less than $10 a month.

Marketplace applications and enrollment may be accepted up to 60 days after Medicaid or CHIP coverage ends. Visit Healthcare.gov or call 1-800-318-2596 to enroll.

Find out if you can still get health coverage through the Affordable Care Act. Get details for applying after losing Medicaid/CHIP.

If you have been denied coverage, call at 1-844-WV-CARES or visit acanavigator.com/wv/home for additional options.
