3/18/2020: Governor Andy Beshear made changes so that any of those who are now unemployed, who have lost benefits, can immediately apply for Medicaid. “We want everyone to sign up for the programs we have, those who are underemployed or unemployed,” said Eric Friedlander, acting secretary for the Cabinet for Health and Family Services. “Those who are eligible and not already signed up, we want to help you apply. We ask you to visit our website and call us so we can help you with your health benefits.”
