Health Insurance Enrollment

Need health insurance? We can help!

Our team of enrollment experts is dedicated to helping you get the coverage you need. They are knowledgeable about insurance and healthcare policy changes, and can connect you to local food pantries, housing assistance, employment assistance and other support services.

You may qualify for low-cost or free health insurance through Medicaid or the Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP) depending on your income and what state you live in. If you qualify for either program, you can enroll anytime, without waiting for the enrollment period. To find out if you are eligible, contact one of our enrollment experts today.

Curious what insurance we accept? Check out our list of Accepted Insurance Plans here.

We can help with:

  • Medicaid (BadgerCare+) enrollment and renewal assistance
  • Health Insurance Marketplace (HealthCare.gov) enrollment assistance
  • FoodShare applications
  • Referrals to community resources
  • Financial Hardship assistance
  • Family Planning services*

Call 608-361-0311 to talk with one of our enrollment experts.

*Please note: All children and pregnant women are eligible for coverage regardless of their legal status. Healthcare.gov doesn’t notify people if they’re eligible for limited Medicaid programs that cover only family planning services.

BadgerCare Plus renewals are back!

The annual renewal process for BadgerCare Plus and other Medicaid programs was suspended for the past three years. Renewals are now back and all members will need to complete one at some point over the following year. The last renewals will be due at the end of May 2024.

Get ready for Health Insurance Renewals!

  • Update your contact information and check your renewal date. Log into access.wi.gov or use the MyACCESS app.
  • Watch your mail for a letter with renewal instructions and read carefully.
  • Complete your renewal at the right time – not too early or too late!
Important: Members will keep their healthcare benefits until they are asked to complete a renewal.

What to expect at renewal time

To see if you can keep their benefits, you will need to update your household information. You may be asked to submit proof of your answers by the due date.
