Renew Your CareSource Benefits

Did you know? You can lose your health care coverage if you do not take action and renew every year. We don’t want you or your family to lose your benefits. The Ohio Department of Medicaid (ODM) will send you a renewal reminder form in the mail. When you get it, or when you get a reminder from CareSource, take action. Always confirm or report a change in address to your local county Job & Family Services (JFS) office. You don’t want to miss your renewal reminder.

Once you get the Medicaid renewal form, you must take action.
