HFS has posted a frequently asked questions (FAQ) document for the Illinois Medicaid Redetermination Project. The document explains what redetermination is, and how to respond to letters you may get.
At least once each year, the state must make sure that you are still eligible for benefits. Redetermination is the annual process of reviewing your case.
You will be sent your new HFS medical card after your annual redetermination.
You will be contacted if the state needs you to send more information. It is important to provide this information. Not responding could result in losing benefits. This information could include proof of income, address, Social Security number, other insurance and how many people live with you.
HFS also posted samples of the letters you may receive about redetermination.
