Who must enroll?

In 2018, Illinois expanded it’s Medicaid managed care program to all counties statewide. Most people with an HFS medical card must enroll in a HealthChoice Illinois health plan. If you are required to enroll in a health plan, you will receive an enrollment packet in the mail. It will ask you to pick a health plan and primary care provider (PCP) for you and your family. You can also find out if you must enroll by calling Client Enrollment Services at 1-888-912-8880 (TTY: 1-866-565-8576). The call is free. 

Who does not have to enroll?

Here are some reasons why you would not have to enroll in a health plan:

  • You have private health insurance that covers hospital and doctor visits
  • You are in the Spenddown Program
  • You are receiving temporary medical benefits
  • You are in an All Kids Premium Level 2 case
  • You get care in the Illinois Breast and Cervical Cancer Program
  • You are in a Veterans Care case
