Episode Details

Could a missed renewal notice interrupt your Medicaid coverage—or your help paying Medicare costs? With Medicaid changes coming in 2027, knowing what applies to YOU matters.

In Part 3 of our free Medicaid and Medicare Savings Programs course, I’ll explain how to handle renewal and recertification without getting lost in the paperwork.

I’m Dr. Ed Weir, former Social Security District Manager and Medicaid specialist. We’ll cover:

✅ Understanding what your renewal notice asks for
✅ Preparing the information your state needs
✅ Saving proof that you responded
✅ Following up when something goes missing
✅ What to do if your coverage is ending

We’ll also explain relevant One Big Beautiful Bill changes. The new six-month renewal requirement applies to specified Medicaid expansion groups—not everyone receiving Medicaid or a Medicare Savings Program.

Your state, coverage category, and notice determine your next step. Respond to requested information by the deadline on your notice.
