Get ready to renew your Medicaid! Medicaid customers have not had to renew their Medicaid coverage since the Covid-19 pandemic began. Medicaid pays for healthcare, like doctor visits, prescription medicine, and urgent emergency services. Now Illinois is starting renewals again to see if people are still eligible. Everybody's renewal date is different, so it is critical that you get ready to renew. Don't risk losing your Medicaid! Here is what you need to do: Go to Manage My Case at abe.illinois.gov to: Verify your mailing address under "contact us." Find your due date (also called redetermination date) in your "benefit details".
