Millions Have Lost Medicaid Coverage
The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) estimates that around 8.2 million have lost their Medicaid coverage with the phase out of the three-year Medicaid continuous enrollment program. 73% of those disenrolled have lost coverage due to procedural reasons. In some states, the majority of those who have lost coverage are children.
Individuals who have experienced a loss of coverage may find it difficult to navigate the new process and will rely heavily on Providers to deliver guidance and education regarding their available options. Our free materials below provide Providers and their staff with all the information they need to educate patients, help them re-enroll, and mitigate the risk of uncompensated care during this transition. Download and use them today!
During this time, it is crucial to collaborate with an eligibility and enrollment "navigator" like Savista, capable of coordinating with payers regarding renewal dates, possessing expertise in prioritizing target populations, and equipped to help where it is needed most. We will also proactively reach out to your current Medicaid patients to help them re-enroll or find an alternative funding program based on their specific situation.
