Medicaid and CHIP enrollment is at an all-time high due to Medicaid flexibilities and protections that are tied to the declaration of a Public Health Emergency (PHE). When the PHE ends, states will no longer be required to maintain continuous enrollment protection enacted by the COVID Relief Act, and therefore must begin conducting Medicaid Eligibility Redeterminations. The ‘unwinding’ of Medicaid provisions tied with the termination of the PHE will require states to conduct Medicaid Eligibility Redeterminations. The unwinding process will vary by state, but states have up to 12 months to start an eligibility renewal for every individual enrolled in their Medicaid/CHIP plans.
