Medicaid Advocacy Opportunities:

If you are a current or former Medicaid beneficiary, caregiver of a Medicaid beneficiary, or if you are a healthcare provider, and would like to apply to serve on your state’s Beneficiary Advisory Committee (BAC) or Medical Advisory Committee (MAC), please reply to this email and indicate your state, as well as whether you are a patient, caregiver, or healthcare provider. Alabama, Hawaii, and Idaho are currently actively seeking BAC applications, and most states accept applications to either committee on a rolling basis.

2026 Coverage Survey — final day is October 18th:

Please take our 2026 Coverage Survey if you haven’t already. The survey takes about 10 minutes to complete and responses will be used to generate a report released in November, similar to our 2025 Coverage Report, to help patients make more informed decisions when choosing their plan for next year.

A variety of free educational materials for patients, healthcare providers, and suppliers are always available through our Educational Materials page. We have seven different printable handouts available in both English and Spanish, as well as information cards (pictured below) that will be sent to you completely free of charge.
