In an effort to enforce social distancing and help prevent the spread of COVID-19, the CNMI State Medicaid Agency has announced that they have installed a new drop-box as a way for applicants to submit their applications and supporting documents during the global pandemic.
New and returning applicants can pick up all application forms right next to the drop-box located at their office in Capitol Hill or forms can be downloaded via their website at http://medicaid.cnmi.mp/index.php/sma-services/medicaid-application-forms.
All application and renewal/redetermination forms submitted must be original. Supporting documents may be submitted via fax at (670) 664-4885, email, or via the drop-box with copies attached to application forms. Please note that Medicaid staff will not be making any copies for clients at this time.
In addition, please be sure that all mailing addresses and contact numbers are up to date to ensure that cards are sent to the correct addresses and in the event that case workers need to contact any beneficiaries.
The CNMI State Medicaid Agency will be practicing social distancing at their Capitol Hill office. Applicants and beneficiaries will be advised to stay at least six feet apart from one another in waiting areas.
