“How can I help avoid payment interruptions and remain eligible for HIPP?”

1. Have at least one Medicaid dependent that resides in-state.
2. Keep your Medicaid dependent(s) enrolled in the health insurance policy on file.
3. Avoid any unnecessary changes that may change the cost-effectiveness of your case.
4. Provide proof of premium deduction each month.
5. Notify HIPP of changes, including:

   ● Insurance policy or plan
   ● Employer
   ● Premium deduction/ payment amount
   ● Medicaid recipient(s) status change

“How will I find out if I am no longer eligible for the HIPP program?”
If you become ineligible at any time, your monthly payments will stop and you will receive a letter in the mail with the reason for this determination. Please note that sending proof of your monthly premium deduction (i.e. a paystub) or payment will affect your eligibility.

Remember, your HIPP eligibility and your Medicaid eligibility are separate affairs. Losing HIPP eligibility does not affect your Medicaid eligibility.
