In accordance with federal law, the State of Rhode Island is reviewing Medicaid members’ information to make sure you still qualify for coverage.
Neighborhood wants you to stay covered. If you received a notice from the State about your Medicaid renewal, it’s important that you act right away.
Here’s how to renew your Medicaid coverage:
Mail in your renewal application and supporting documents to:
State of Rhode Island
P.O. Box 8709

Keep your Medicaid benefits – RENEW ON TIME!
You got a letter in the mail because the State of Rhode Island needs to confirm that you’re still eligible for Medicaid benefits.
- If the letter is on white paper and says “Be Ready. Stay Covered” don’t worry. It is not your turn to renew yet.
- If the letter is on yellow or white paper and says “Recertification/Renewal Notice”, it’s time for you to renew.
- If the letter is on green paper and says “Important Information About your Medicaid Coverage – Please Take Action Right Away” follow the instructions in your Special Circumstance notice.
If you received a notice asking you to send additional information to the State for them to review your eligibility and you don’t do this, you eventually may be terminated from the Medicaid program. This means you will be disenrolled from Neighborhood and will not have coverage for things like doctors’ visits, prescriptions, etc.
- Make sure your mailing address is up to date on the HealthyRhode website.
