Coverage frequently asked questions
What happens if I don’t renew my health insurance?
Without renewing health insurance, you may see a break in your coverage. Any doctors or hospital visit without coverage might mean paying the full price for the visit out of pocket. This could cost you thousands of dollars. Don’t let this happen, renew your coverage when it is time to do so.
When do I need to renew my health insurance?
MetroPlusHealth will notify you in advance as to when you need to renew your health insurance coverage and how to do so. Generally, you will need to renew your coverage once a year, but when you need to do so will vary based on plan and when you originally enrolled.
