Summary
Michigan Department of Health and Human Services suspended all Medicaid renewals starting June 1, 2020 due to COVID-19, with passive renewals processed only through June and all renewals suspended beginning July 1, 2020. This temporary policy ensures continuous Medicaid coverage for beneficiaries without requiring the typical periodic re-evaluation process during the public health emergency.
Action Required
Immediately: Billing team should expect continuous Medicaid coverage for existing patients without renewal interruptions through the suspension period. Monitor for future bulletins announcing when normal renewal processes will resume. Verify patient eligibility as usual but do not expect coverage lapses due to missed renewals during this emergency period.
