The Health and Human Services Commission of Texas recently advised recipients of the Medicaid 2023 to submit the renewal packets they have received last April. This submission intends to return the information to Texas HHSC to prevent possible shortage in the funding. Fortunately, the deadline to submit the renewal packets has been extended to May 15 from the previous deadline of May 8.

According to Russ, the Health and Human Services Commission of Texas is alternating the reassessments for Medicaid 2023 over the past couple months. Nonetheless, the reassessments will most likely prioritize those who are no longer eligible for the program.
