How can I enroll in MetroPlusHealth insurance?

You may not know where to start if you’re looking for health insurance coverage. MetroPlusHealth offers a range of plans that suit your needs without costing too much. If you’re looking for a health insurance plan, you may want to know about income qualifications, any payment requirements, and options for immigrants. Signing up for health insurance can seem scary – but it’s easier if you know what to expect. Though enrollment details may vary between plans, we’ll guide you every step of the way.

Our plans cover essential health care needs, from preventive visits and immunizations to hospitalization, lab tests, and prenatal care. Individual benefits vary based on your plan, but you can typically count on things like preventive care, immunizations, specialist visits, and hospitalizations.

You will need contact information, including your address, phone number and email address, so be sure you have that.

Next, you’ll need to provide proof of identity and date of birth, proof of residency, and proof of current income. Documents you may be able to use include:

Proof of identity and date of birth:

• Identification such as social security number or other documentation from the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services for documented immigrants. Note that immigration status does not affect eligibility with MetroPlusHealth.
• Drivers license
• Passport
• Birth certificate
• Marriage records
• Baptismal or other religious certification

Proof of residency:

• Utility bill
• Bank statement
• Lease/rent receipt
• ID card with address

Proof of income:

Once you have your information ready, get started by calling MetroPlusHealth. The member services team is available weekdays 8 a.m. – 6 p.m., and Saturdays 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. at 1.855.809.4073 (TTY:711).

Most enrollments wrap up quickly, but we recommend setting aside 30 minutes. This way, our member services team can double-check your information and address any questions. Enrolling several family members? You might want to plan for a little longer.
