Webinar: Updated Information on Medicaid Unwinding and the Medicaid Renewal Process
Information has been disseminated during the past couple of months to alert families and staff about the end of automatic, continuous Medicaid enrollment and the Medicaid renewals, which are known as Medicaid unwinding. In the webinar on April 27th, The Arc of New Jersey's Beverly Roberts will provide updated information on this process. It is important to keep in mind that although Medicaid unwinding is beginning in April, the NJ FamilyCare/Medicaid renewal applications will be mailed during a 12 month period. Therefore, only 1/12th of the renewal applications are scheduled to be mailed in April.
Starting in April 2023, it is anticipated everyone who will receive a Medicaid renewal application that month will receive a postcard from their Medicaid managed care organization (MCO) early in the month (probably in the first week to 10 days), to let them know that the Medicaid renewal application will be arriving in the mail that month. During this webinar, Beverly Roberts, Director of our Mainstreaming Medical Care Program, will share updated information about Medicaid unwinding and the Medicaid renewal process.
