Starting February 1, 2007, Medicaid recipients will be required to be enrolled in one of the new Medicaid Health Care Plans to receive their Medicaid Benefits.
Enrollment in STAR+Plus is required for Medicaid recipients who live in the STAR+Plus Service area and are one or more of the following:
* People who have a physical or mental disability and qualify for supplemental security income (SSI) benefits or for Medicaid due to low income.
* People who qualify for Community-Based Alternative 1915(c) waiver services.
* People age 21 or older who can receive Medicaid because they are in a Social Security Exclusion program and meet financial criteria for 1915(c) waiver services.
* People ages 21 or older who are receiving supplemental security incomes.
The Star+Plus service area is the following counties: Bexar, Medina, Atascosa, Wilson, Comal, Guadalupe, and Kendall. The Medicaid recipient will have 3 health care plans to choose from: Amerigroup, Superior, and Molina Health Care. If the Medicaid recipient does not make a choice by completing the enrollment packet, then they will be ‘auto-enrolled’ to one of the health care plans.
This information and more is being provided at the Star+Plus information events. The purpose of these events is to provide information to the Medicaid recipient and/or their family in order to assist them in learning about Star+Plus, how to enroll, and how this affects their benefits and services.
Those individuals who are deaf/hearing impaired and are a Medicaid recipient should be encouraged to attend; although anyone is welcomed.
