Attention: Important Information Regarding HIP Waitlist
Beginning August 1, 2011, batches of letters will be sent over the next few months to 8,000 Hoosiers already on the childless adult Healthy Indiana Plan (HIP) waitlist; letters will go out to those who have been on the waitlist the longest. These individuals will be asked to reapply and their application reviewed to confirm eligibility. Once confirmed, the applicant will receive HIP membership. Anyone not returning a new application within 45 days, or anyone that no longer meets the eligibility requirements, will be taken off the waitlist and that slot will be added to the next batch of current waitlist mailings. If you are a childless adult who has previously applied for HIP and one of the 8,000, you will receive a letter in the mail sometime after August 1st. If you receive a letter, be sure to follow the instructions and return the completed application with supporting documents within 45 days.
Please note: If you are on the waitlist and you have a new mailing address, you must report your address change by completing a Report of Change form and take it to your case worker or local Division of Family Resources (DFR) office. You may also mail the completed form to Change Report, FSSA Document Center, PO Box 1630, Marion, IN 46952-1630. Completed forms may also be faxed to 1-800-403-0864. If you need a Report of Change form mailed to you, call 1-800-403-0864. For other HIP information or waitlist details, please call 1-877-GET-HIP9, and press one when prompted for the waitlist for childless adults. You will be connected to an enrollment broker. If you are not currently on the waitlist and are a childless adult you may still apply for HIP; those who meet the other eligibility standards will be added to the waitlist in order of receipt.
If you have any questions, please contact 1-877-GET-HIP9 (1-877-438-4479).
