When Do You Need to Report Changes?
You need to report changes when:
- Any information given on your OHP application changes.
Please report changes within 10 days of the change.
-
You want to add or correct information you submitted on your OHP application.
- You want to cancel your OHP.
Note: If you qualify for OHP Plus benefits but want to enroll in private health insurance coverage, known as a Qualified Health Plan (QHP), at HealthCare.gov:
- Canceling your OHP does not mean that you no longer qualify for OHP Plus.
- As long as you qualify for OHP Plus, you will not qualify for financial help to pay for the QHP's monthly premium. You would need to pay full cost.
What Changes to Report
Changes include:
- A claim for a personal injury
- A permanent change in mailing address or residence. Do not report temporary changes, like entering residential treatment, going to college, or trips out of town/state.
- The birth of a child
- A change of legal name for anyone receiving OHP
- For anyone in your household, a change that means they can get health coverage a different way, such as a new job
