If you’re not enrolled in coverage through Medicaid or the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) but got a notice saying you may lose financial help for your Marketplace plan because of your enrollment in Medicaid or CHIP, you should immediately report a change to the Marketplace.
This way you can let us know you aren’t enrolled in Medicaid or CHIP.
How to report that you don't have Medicaid or CHIP coverage
- Visit HealthCare.gov, log into your Marketplace account, and select your most recent application.
- Select “Application Details” on the left side of the screen.
- See your “Marketplace & Medicaid/CHIP coverage” information. Answer a brief question about each person’s Medicaid or CHIP enrollment status. Be sure to indicate correctly any household members who do not have Medicaid or CHIP coverage.
- Select the green “Update Application” button.
- Navigate through your application and update your information as needed.
- Finish updating and submit your application. You must complete all steps on your “To Do List” for your changes to take effect.
