Idaho Medicaid Rules Change Jan 1 | Boise News
Description
Idaho’s Medicaid expansion is getting a major overhaul starting January 1st—beneficiaries must now log at least 80 hours monthly in work, education, or volunteering or risk losing coverage. Driven by federal law and state approval, the policy aims to promote active community participation, with exemptions for pregnant women, caregivers, disabled individuals, and veterans. Up to 34,000 people could lose coverage by 2028, though officials say most already meet the criteria. Eligibility checks are shifting from annual to biannual, so beneficiaries should act now: sign up for alerts via Idalink, update contact info, and start tracking hours to stay compliant.
