New approval from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services now allows Hawaiʻi children the opportunity to stay covered by QUEST without interruptions, as follows:

  • Children under age 6 will have continuous coverage until their sixth birthday.
  • Children ages 6 to 19 will receive coverage for two years at a time.

This means families won’t have to reapply as often, reducing paperwork and making it easier to focus on what matters most: their children’s health and well-being.

Hawai‘i joins 12 other states leading the way with expanded continuous Medicaid coverage for children, alongside Colorado, Kansas, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Montana, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Utah and Washington. These changes reflect a strong commitment to ensuring that every child in our state has access to the care they need to thrive.

To apply for QUEST (Medicaid) coverage in Hawai‘i, visit  MedQuest.Hawaii.Gov
