Attention KanCare Enrollees

KanCare renewals are coming. Make sure the KanCare Clearinghouse has your most current contact information. Click the red chat bubble in the lower right of your screen or call 1-800-792-4884 and give the Clearinghouse your updated address, phone number or any other contact information that has recently changed. Doing this will help the KanCare Clearinghouse contact you when your renewal is due and may help you avoid a gap in coverage.

More Medicaid renewal information and resources.

Sign up for the Kansas Medical Consumer Self-Service Portal and link your medical case to see your benefits, complete a renewal and report changes. You must link your medical case to your self-service account to use the portal. Requests to link medical cases to self-service accounts are reviewed by KanCare eligibility workers before being approved. 

For more instructions, watch the how-to videos or read instructions for the self-service portal (SSP).
