Access Matters
Keeping Your Insurance in a Changing Landscape
Federal and state changes to Medicaid, Medicare, and Covered California mean that thousands of people of color may lose coverage simply by missing a notice.
What You Need to Know:
– If you get Medi-Cal, you must renew yearly now—no auto-renewal.
– Covered California enrollees need to report income or household changes fast.
– New plans and subsidies may lower your cost, even if you earn more than before.
What to Do:
– Call 211 or visit your county health office if you missed the renewal
– Visit coveredca.com or your local navigator
– Look for Black-led clinics or advocacy orgs that can walk you through it
Don’t let paperwork cost you your health.
