Opting Out of Tailored Care Management

You can opt out of (or decline) Tailored Care Management at any time. This will not affect your other services in any way. You can opt back in at any time.

These Medicaid health plans offer Tailored Care Management. To opt out, call the one listed on your health plan ID card and tell them you do not want Tailored Care Management.

If you opt out, you will still have what’s called “care coordination.”  You can call your health plan with questions, and they can give you resources. But, you will not have an assigned person to help you one-on-one with your health care.

If you change your mind

You can restart Tailored Care Management at any time. Call the number listed on your health plan ID card and tell them you want Tailored Care Management.

If you never gave your consent

To get started with Tailored Care Management, you had to consent to (or agree to) Tailored Care Management by telling your Tailored Care Manager.  

If you never gave your consent, please opt out officially by calling the number listed on your health plan ID card.

Note: Opting out of Tailored Care Management is different from opting out of Tailored Plans. Tailored Plans are a type of Medicaid health plan. If you opt out of your Tailored Plan, your Medicaid coverage and services may change. Tailored Care Management is a service, and opting out of it will not affect your other services.
