MEDICAID UNWINDING: GENERAL INFORMATION WEBINAR

Superior HealthPlan and MHP Salud have collaborated on an information
session in response to the many individuals who have not renewed their
Medicaid coverage.

It is their hope that together with community/faith based organizations,
SCHOOL DISTRICTS, and any others who are interested in learning more about
the process of families needing to renew their coverage, they can help
educate communities on the importance of not losing coverage for themselves
and/or their loved ones.

The registration link can be found here [3]. Please share with anyone who
may be interested.
