The current Open Enrollment period for Commonwealth of Kentucky Medicaid Managed Care members will continue until December 12, 2014. All Medicaid members will have the option to change MCOs or remain with their current plan. The MCO choices are: Anthem (not available in the counties in Region 3 – Breckinridge, Bullitt, Carroll, Grayson, Hardin, Henry, Jefferson, Larue, Marion, Meade, Nelson, Oldham, Shelby, Spencer, Trimble and Washington) Coventry Cares, Humana, Passport, and Wellcare. MCO changes made during this Open Enrollment period will be effective on January 1, 2015. Note: If a member does not proactively change their MCO during the Open Enrollment period, they will remain with the same MCO for 2015. Members who wish to change their MCO should contact the Department for Medicaid Services Call Center at 800-635-2570. For those members who came into Medicaid through the Kentucky Health Benefits Exchange - kynect, they can return to the kynect website to make MCO changes. The web address for kynect is: kynect.ky.gov These members may also make their MCO changes on a kynect Kiosk. These kiosks are located in many of our Commonwealth’s hospitals, for the member’s convenience. All Medicaid members served by MCOs received an open enrollment packet in the mail in October, explaining their MCO choices during Open Enrollment. You may access this packet at chfs.ky.gov/dms/, under “What’s New.” We hope that you will remind Medicaid members of this opportunity. As a reminder, Medicaid members who receive long term care in nursing facilities and home and community based waivers, Medicaid savings plans, or time-limited Medicaid coverage are not served through MCOs, so this open enrollment period does not apply to them. If you have questions, please contact the Division of Provider and Member Services, at 800-635-2570.
