Your pregnancy benefits may have ended. Medicaid maternity plans cover you while you're pregnant and up to two months after your baby is born. Texas HHSC will let you know if you’re eligible for a Medicaid plan just for parents, or if they need more information from you. You may need to complete a new application to verify your eligibility.
Your Medicaid eligibility is based on several factors, including your income. You may no longer qualify if you started a new job, got a raise, or worked more hours.
These kinds of status changes could impact your ability to qualify.
