About Michigan Programs
The Healthy Michigan Plan (HMP) is Michigan’s Medicaid expansion program that provides health coverage for eligible adults with low incomes. HMP covers services such as doctor visits, hospital care, prescription medications, preventive care, behavioral health services, and more.
Beginning in January 2027, new federal Medicaid requirements may impact some HMP members. These changes include work and community engagement requirements for certain adults and more frequent coverage renewals. Additionally, beginning in October 2026, some immigration-related Medicaid eligibility changes will take effect.
This page provides information and resources to help Michigan residents understand these changes and prepare for any actions needed to maintain coverage.
