News Release from Hawaii DHS

IMPORTANT! Please know that the following applies for all Med-QUEST members statewide:

Med-QUEST has paused terminations for the remainder of 2023, meaning coverage will continue through at least the end of this year without interruption except for those who voluntarily ask Med-QUEST to end their coverage, those who have moved out of state or those who are deceased.

If Med-QUEST can successfully renew your eligibility at this time, we will, and a pink letter confirming your renewed coverage will be mailed to you.

If Med-QUEST is unable to renew your coverage at this time, your renewal date will be pushed out to a new month after this pause.

Are you enrolled in Med-QUEST? Has your contact information changed in the past three years? Please update your contact information with us so you can stay enrolled. Call us at 1-800-316-8005 or log in to your account here to make the change.

We want everyone to Stay Well and Stay Covered. Click here for the more information and for the communications toolkit.
