Medicaid Renewals: What Brevard Families Need to Know

After years of paused renewals during the public health emergency, Florida Medicaid has returned to regular eligibility reviews — and thousands of Brevard families are now receiving renewal notices for the first time in several years.

If you or a family member are enrolled in Florida Medicaid, the most important step is simple: keep your contact information current. Renewal packets are mailed to the address on file, and missing the response deadline can result in a coverage gap even if you still qualify.

When your renewal arrives, gather proof of income, household size, and any changes in circumstances. If you no longer qualify for Medicaid, you may be able to transition to a Marketplace plan through HealthCare.gov, often with financial help that lowers the monthly cost.

Questions about your renewal can be directed to the Florida Department of Children and Families through the ACCESS Florida portal, or by calling 2-1-1 Brevard for local assistance.
