HR1 & Frequently Asked Questions

What is HR1?

HR1 includes federal policy changes that may affect health coverage eligibility, enrollment requirements, and renewal processes for some Medicaid and health insurance participants.

Patients may receive notices requesting updated information or renewal documentation. Because requirements can vary, it is important to review all communications from your health plan, Medicaid office, or NY State of Health.
