    If you already have Medicaid

    According to the NYS Department of Health guidance, no person who currently has Medicaid coverage will lose their coverage during the COVID-19 public health emergency. Any person receiving notice that their Medicaid enrollment is discontinued after March 18, 2020, will be reinstated so there is no gap in coverage. Please direct
    questions to the local district or the New York State Medicaid Helpline at 1-800-541-2831.
