Medicaid enrollment

Open enrollment for the health care marketplace lasts until Jan. 15. But if people want coverage on Jan. 1, they must be enrolled by Dec. 15.

State economists say a $342 million current-year surplus will turn into a nearly $1.25 billion shortfall in the 2021-22 fiscal year, “primarily caused by the end of the supplementary federal funding.”

A high-ranking Medicaid official conceded that the state is experiencing some of the biggest increases in the program.

A revised projection of enrollment for the 2021-22 fiscal year, which will start July 1, includes about 220,000 more people than economists projected.
