Medicaid Benefits

Picture
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.” ​
If you have been affected by work loss because of COVID-19, follow these steps to apply for Kentucky benefits. 
​
  • Apply for Medicaid only by calling the Kentucky Healthcare Customer Service line toll-free at (855) 459-6328 or contacting an application assister through the Kentucky Health Benefit Exchange website.
  • Apply for all public assistance programs by visiting the Benefind website or by calling the DCBS Call Center toll free at (855) 306-8959.
