Medicaid Renewals/Recertifications in NYC- Medicaid can be DISCONTINUED if RENEWAL not returned - Starting April 2025

Medicaid is authorized for one year at a time. Approximately 3 - 4 months before the end of your authorization period, you should receive a "renewal" or "recertification" packet by mail, which includes instructions on how to complete and return the packet to HRA. Here are tips for handling renewals, including how to obtain a copy of the renewal form if you don't receive one in the mail.

Starting May 2025 - if New York City recipients do not return renewals, Medicaid is discontinued. HRA sends a Notice of Discontinuance 10 days before the discontinuance. When Medicaid is discontinued, so are all services -- including MLTC and home care.

New April 2023 - NYC Medicaid renewals can be uploaded ONLINE on AccessHRA website -- but documents must be submitted separately on a mobile app. https://a069-access.nyc.gov/accesshra/

CDPAP consumers and Their Personal Assistants Must Switch to "PPL" as their Fiscal Intermediary by March 28, 2025 - or Lose CDPAP Services

February 24, 2025

Under a change enacted in the 2024-25 NYS Budget, NYS Is requiring all 240,000 Medicaid recipients who have CDPAP services to switch their "Fiscal Intermediary" (FI") -- the agency that manages payroll and benefits for their Personal Assistants ("PA")-- to a new "single FI" called Public Partnerships LLC or "PPL." This includes members of MLTC plans, mainstream managed care plans, and those receiving CDPAP from their local county Dept. of Social Services (HRA in NYC). As the "single FI," PPL will replace the more than 600 FIs that currently handle payroll and benefits for all PAs in CDPAP.
