How to Renew Coverage 

To keep Medical Assistance benefits open, this is what you must do:

1. You will receive a renewal packet from the County Assistance Office (CAO) when it is time to renew your coverage.
   1. The packet will include forms that you will need to complete and return to the CAO.
   2. A self-addressed stamped envelope will be included for your convenience.
   3. It is very important for you to return the forms to the CAO by your shown due date.   
2. You may also renew online at dhs.pa.gov/COMPASS. Instructions on how to use the COMPASS website to renew online will be included in your packet.
