Kentucky children under the age of 19 covered under COVID Medicaid enrollment can continue their coverage. The commonwealth has received federal approval to delay what is known as the Medicaid “unwinding” process. The COVID-19 public health emergency ended in May. That caused Medicaid enrollment to change back to the federal processes that were in place before March of 2020.
During a press conference this week, Lieutenant Governor Jacqueline Coleman said Kentucky is the first state to implement this flexibility.
