General Information
Can I still access the applications if my Medicaid eligibility changes to inactive?
Can I view my family member’s (son/daughter/parent/etc.) information?
Are there other languages available through the applications?
How do the applications make sure that only the correct people have access to the information?
To add an account in the applications, a member must have an accepted “relationship” to the account to be able to view their info.
CHAMPS has “checks” in place to stop any outside contact with protected records. myHealthButton & myHealthPortal use these “checks” in the applications. A record would not be shown in myHealthButton & myHealthPortal if it were protected.
How do I learn what “relationship” I am when adding a member in the applications?
Case relationships in the myHealthButton & myHealthPortal are shown in CHAMPS. When you add other members to your account, the only “relationship” that will work is the relationship that is what is already in CHAMPS.
If you do not know the relationship when adding other members, contact your caseworker or the beneficiary hotline at 1-800-642-3195.
