The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) is conducting a final series of outreach efforts to individuals whose eligibility for Marketplace coverage is in question due to missing or inconsistent citizenship or immigration status documentation.
Individuals who do not respond by September 5 could have their coverage cancelled as of September 30. CMS expects carriers to work with cancelled members to help them transition to an off-exchange plan.
Additional information is available on the Marketplace website or in the CMS press release. A sample of the CMS outreach letter can be found here.
CMS will send a notice to individuals whose Marketplace coverage is ending. If you lose coverage as a result of this issue, you have the option to enroll in an individual plan outside of the exchanges. You have sixty days from the date you lose coverage to apply for a new plan. Eligible dependents may be able to retain Marketplace coverage.
