Members in counties that rolled out in April, May, June, or July: You are now receiving care through a MyCare plan.
Members in counties that rolled out in August:
Members eligible for the MyCare Ohio Waiver: You will start receiving services through the waiver once your plan starts.
Once you are enrolled with your plan, you should receive a new member ID card and other information explaining your benefits. You can keep seeing your current doctors for a limited time after you start receiving care through the program. After that transition period ends, you’ll need to make sure your doctor is in your plan’s network.
