If you’re not sure if you qualify, but still need healthcare, we can connect you to coverage options. You can also learn about other benefits you’re eligible for, like food and childcare assistance.

Let’s find out why you may lose coverage

During the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency, all Medicaid members were able to stay enrolled, regardless of changes in eligibility or status. Now that renewals have resumed, you may have to take action to keep your coverage. 

 

Maternity plans
 

MO HealthNet maternity plans cover you throughout your pregnancy and two months after you give birth. Luckily, we offer plans for parents with the same doctors and benefits you’re used to. You just need to reapply.

Apply for MO HealthNet

You may still be eligible even though your maternity benefits are ending. The only way to know for sure is to reapply. Follow these steps:

1 | Log in or register

Go to your state agency website. Log in or register your secure online account. 

2 | Apply

Fill out the application or update missing or incorrect information in your account.

3 | Get notified

You’ll receive a notice from the state to let you know if you’re re-enrolled.

Remember to apply before your maternity benefits expire so you don’t have a gap in coverage. If you still qualify, you’ll come back to your previous health plan. All set.
