Annual open enrollment
Open enrollment occurs every year during the month of November. All members can change their plan during open enrollment. Your plan selection will be effective the first day of the month following the selection.

Just cause
If you have concerns about your plan and access to healthcare, you can request to change or disenroll from your plan at any time for Just Cause – a request to change or disenroll from plans outside of the annual open enrollment period or after the initial 90-day enrollment period due to concerns about not receiving benefits needed. You can make a Just Cause request by contacting Ohio Department of Medicaid through the Ohio Medicaid Consumer Hotline at 800-324-8680 (TTY 711) or reaching out to your managed care plan.
