As a result of the Medicaid eligibility redetermination process that resumed in April 2023, individuals who no longer qualify for Medicaid or CHIP and have lost their benefits more than 60 days prior are eligible to enroll in a plan through Nevada Health Link. The extension of the special enrollment period runs until the end of November.
According to Russell Cook, Executive Director of Nevada Health Link, one challenge for those who have lost Medicaid is the lack of a current mailing address on file with Medicaid. This may prevent them from receiving their termination letter and being aware of the end of their coverage. However, he encourages Nevadans who have lost Medicaid coverage to contact Nevada Health Link for enrollment support. They can visit the website or call 1-800-547-2927 for assistance.
Nevada Health Link has been working closely with state officials and healthcare providers to ensure that individuals who have lost their Medicaid coverage can easily find alternative plans that meet their needs. The organization also provides resources and information about various health insurance options available in the state, as well as information about how to apply for financial assistance programs such as subsidies under the Affordable Care Act (ACA).
The extension of the special enrollment period is just one way that Nevada Health Link is helping individuals who have lost their Medicaid coverage find affordable and accessible healthcare options. By providing enrollment support and resources, Nevada Health Link is making it easier for people to get covered and stay healthy during this challenging time.
