آ،Queremos mantenerte en nuestra comunidad! Nos hemos enterado de que es posible que haya perdido su cobertura de Medicaid por no devolver un paquete de renovaciأ³n. آ،Aprende mأ،s!

Anteriormente, mientras la emergencia de salud pأ؛blica o PHE permanecأ­a vigente, los beneficiarios de Medicaid tenأ­an una cobertura continua protegida durante el mes calendario en que finaliza el PHE. Pero a fines de 2022, el Congreso eliminأ³ el requisito de cobertura continua a partir del 31 de marzo 2023.

Entonces, en abril, la Comisiأ³n de Salud y Servicios Humanos de Texas, HHSC, comenzarأ، a enviar paquetes de renovaciأ³n para recopilar la informaciأ³n actualizada necesaria para volver a determinar la elegibilidad de millones de afiliados actuales de Medicaid, verificando que cumplan con ciertos requisitos, como el nivel de ingresos, para permanecer matriculado. Si desea continuar recibiendo Medicaid, ahora es el momento de actuar. Estos son los pasos que debe seguir para permanecer inscrito.

Incluso si aأ؛n es elegible para Medicaid en el futuro, puede correr el riesgo de que se cancele su inscripciأ³n si el estado no tiene su informaciأ³n actualizada.

Renueve sus beneficios o corre el riesgo de perderlos. آ،Tome acciأ³n!

ذكذكتسئµ is monitoring the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) and the most updated information from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Texas Department of State Health Services, and the Harris County Public Health Department, to help keep you and your family healthy.

Last updated:ج‎July 24, 2020.ج‎ج‎Check this page regularly for updates.

Texas is seeing a rise in the number of positive cases of COVID-19 and more Texans hospitalized for COVID-19. This is related to residents moving around their communities as businesses reopen, increased availability of testing for COVID-19 and in some cases, attendance at gatherings or relaxing behaviors that prevent the spread of disease. There is still no vaccine to prevent COVID-19 and available treatments are not always effective. It is important to protect yourself and your family by following these recommendations

  • Stay at home as much as possible.
  • Wear a face covering and practice social distancing when in public places.
  • Wash your hands often with soap and water.
  • Cover your mouth and nose while sneezing or coughing.
  • Disinfect objects and surfaces to stay clean.
On July 2, 2020, Governor Greg Abbott issued anج‎ج‎requiring all Texans to wear a face covering over the nose and mouth in public spaces in counties with 20 or more positive COVID-19 cases, with few exceptions. The CDC encourages people to wear a face covering to prevent the spread of COVID-19. It should fit over your mouth and nose. Please read how to wear, remove, care for your face covering,ج‎requirements and exceptions atج‎.ج‎ If you think you are sick with Coronavirus (COVID-19), call your doctor. More ways to get healthy and stay healthy:
  • Eat healthy food, and cut down on processed foods.
  • Reduce or eliminate tobacco and alcohol.
  • Check in with your doctor and our Care Management department if you are managing a chronic condition.
  • Check in with your doctor and our Behavioral Health department if you are experiencing stress and anxiety, depression and other behavioral health conditions.

Are you due for an annual wellness screening? Check the chart! ج‎Teach and reinforce everyday preventive actions.
  • Parents and caretakers play an important role in teaching children to wash their hands. Explain that hand washing can keep them healthy and stop the virus from spreading to others.
  • Be a good role model—if you wash your hands often, they’re more likely to do the same.

Wellness Exams – STAR and CHIP Members:ج‎Texas Health Steps checkups and Well-child exams, also known as wellness checkups, are the best way to help your childج‎stay healthy asج‎they grow.

Review your benefits and make an appointment with your doctor. If you need help, call Marketplace Member Services toll-free at 1.855.315.5386. Vaccines:ج‎Get vaccinated. Keeping immunization rates high in our community is essential for individual health and the health of our community. It is our responsibility to keep each other safe. Just like wearing a mask, social distancing and handwashing helps to prevent the spread of COVID-19, staying up to date with childhood immunizations keeps each individual child protected from vaccine preventable diseases that cause serious illnesses (pneumonia, meningitis, cancer, etc.) and protects vulnerable people in our community that have conditions that prevent them from receiving vaccines. . Over the years, these vaccines have prevented countless cases of disease and saved millions of lives. Infants, children, adolescents, teens and adults need different vaccinations, depending on their age, location, job, lifestyle, travel schedule, health conditions or previous vaccinations. In-Person Doctor Visits Our Providers are making their offices safe for in-person visits. Take control of your health by scheduling a preventive health screening or wellness checkup today. They are a covered benefit.

Use telemedicine services whenever possible. ج‎A Provider can screen and diagnose you over the phone. It’s a great way to get the care you need from home. If you are a CHIP, CHIP-P or STAR Member, ask your Provider if they offer telemedicine. If your doctor is not available and you need help with locating telemedicine services, please call us for assistance. Telemedicine services are now available to all Marketplace plans and D-SNP, you may call them at 1.800.835.2362.

If you may have been exposed to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) or have questions about symptoms, please call your doctor. If you are tested at your doctor’s office, health care facility or testing center, you will not be charged. You may also call our Nurse Help Line. A nurse will answer your questions, and help you get the care you need. Help is available in English or Spanish. You may also ask for an interpreter.

Public testing sites and drive-thru testing locations are available throughout Texas. See the Texas Department of State Health Services website to locate testing centers near you.ج‎

Members who are well and do not have a known risk for infection or symptoms of fever, cough or difficulty breathingج‎should not go directly to ERs or urgent care centersج‎solely to be tested for COVID-19. Doing so may overwhelm hospitals and urgent care centers and prevent them from providing care to people who need help.
