Arkansas Medicaid Renewals

Arkansas Medicaid offers essential programs that provide health coverage to people who otherwise may not be able to afford it. This coverage has been continuous for everyone since 2020 so individuals may not know they need to renew coverage.

Now every Arkansas Medicaid member must go through the annual renewal process to find out if they are still eligible to remain covered in the program. About half of the kids in the U.S. have health care coverage through Medicaid or CHIP. Arkansas Medicaid offers support services that are essential to a child’s learning, such as medical care, mental health care, and therapies that are part of Individualized Education Programs (IEPs).

Keeping children covered is essential for our entire community, and we can help ensure that kids who are eligible stay covered:

• Check your mail for a letter from your state. If you get an Arkansas Medicaid renewal form, complete and submit it right away.
• Apply for coverage even if you don’t think you’re eligible. Your kids might qualify, even if you don’t. To re-apply, visit https://access.arkansas.gov.
