Renew Your Health Insurance

Fidelis Care wants members to know that your health insurance is no longer being automatically renewed. If you are a member in Medicaid Managed Care, Essential Plan, HealthierLife (HARP), or Child Health Plus, you MUST RENEW your health insurance to keep your coverage without interruption.

When do you need to renew your coverage?

To renew your coverage, you will need the following information:

  • Your mailing address 
  • Total household income 
  • Information about your New York State of Health Insurance Program (NYSHIP) account, if you are already enrolled in that program 
  • Information about your health insurance eligibility from a job, or information about health insurance premiums you're already paying 
  • Any other health insurance you carry 
  • Everyone who lives in your household, and any changes in household size 
  • Changes in full-time student status (if applicable) 
  • Changes in immigration status
