Open enrollment happens once a year on your anniversary date and is when you choose which Medicaid health care plan you want. Open enrollment is for people who have already been approved or are already enrolled in Medicaid. Good news! If you want to stay with CountyCare, you don’t need to do anything.
Redetermination, or renewal, is the annual process when the State of Illinois confirms if you are eligible to receive Medicaid services. If you also receive SNAP benefits, you may have to renew every six months.
