What happened

New rules require adults to document 80 hours per month of work, education, or community service to maintain health coverage. Although the requirement does not begin until 2027, new questions have already been added to the Medicaid application. The Kentucky Department for Medicaid Services began mailing official outreach notifications to households in July.
