Renew every year
You have to renew your Medicaid coverage each year. Learn more about how to keep your coverage.
Be as healthy as you can be. A wide range of benefits and services can help. You have a network of providers to get you the right care when you need it. We’ll help you understand your coverage. And make sure you get the most from your benefits.
To start, you’ll want to register for your Member Portal. You can also get the Aetna Better Health mobile app for iPhone® or Android™ to manage your health on the go.
Learn about all your Medicaid plan benefits, including those that go beyond your standard health coverage. From free monthly period products and baby diapers to support for loneliness and help with chronic conditions. Some members are also eligible for certain free over-the-counter (OTC) items.
Were you assigned a doctor? You can change to your current or preferred provider if they’re in our network. Just contact us. You can also find other local care you need, from vision and dental care to primary care providers and specialists.
Understanding Medicaid can be a challenge. Especially if it’s new to you. Or if it’s your first time enrolling. You and your family may be eligible for benefits without knowing it. The first step? See if you qualify. You can find out by checking the income level table on the Maryland Health Connection website.
