Summary
EmblemHealth members with Medicaid, HARP, CHPlus, and Essential Plan coverage must now resume renewing their health insurance since the Public Health Emergency ended. The first group requiring recertification has coverage ending June 30, 2023, and providers must remind these patients to renew or risk losing coverage.
Action Required
Immediately: All staff must identify patients with EmblemHealth Enhanced Care (Medicaid), Enhanced Care Plus (HARP), Child Health Plus (CHPlus), and Essential Plan coverage ending June 30, 2023. Actively remind these patients during appointments and follow-up calls to complete their renewal process on time. Front desk staff should verify coverage status at each visit and provide renewal reminders to prevent coverage lapses that could affect future claims.
