Health Plan Selection Period

From Covering Kids & Families of Indiana

Hoosier Healthwise, Healthy Indiana Plan (HIP), and Hoosier Care Connect members can select a managed care health plan when applying for benefits. If no plan is chosen, the member will be assigned to a plan. This assignment stays the same for the calendar year even if a member loses coverage and later in the same calendar year has coverage reinstated.

There are three occasions in which members can change the assigned health plan:

• Within the first 90 days with a new health plan
• During the annual plan selection period November 1st – December 15th 
• If the state finds “just cause” to change plans upon the member filing a grievance
