Can I have other health insurance coverage while on NYC HRA Medicaid?

Yes, you can have other health insurance coverage while on NYC HRA Medicaid. It is known as "dual coverage." However, it is important to note that NYC HRA Medicaid is the payer of last resort, meaning it will only cover the costs that are not covered by your primary health insurance. You are required to inform both your primary health insurance provider and NYC HRA Medicaid about each other to ensure coordination of benefits. This ensures that your medical expenses are properly covered and prevent any potential fraud. It is recommended to contact the NYC HRA Medicaid office or refer to their guidelines to understand the specific requirements and how having dual coverage may impact your eligibility or benefits.
