Important Notice About Medicaid and SNAP Benefits
In July 2025, Republicans in Congress passed a bill that will change programs run by the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services (DHS). President Trump signed that bill into law.
The law makes changes to Medicaid (Medical Assistance) and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). Changes to Medicaid will begin in fall 2026. Medicaid has not changed at this time. DHS will keep Medicaid recipients updated about their benefits and what they need to do to maintain their Medicaid coverage.
Changes to SNAP include new work reporting requirements that are effective at application, or on your next renewal date. Learn more about SNAP work requirements, how they affect SNAP benefits, and how to report that you are meeting these requirements.
Your benefits will not change without notice from DHS. You will have the opportunity to update your case information before any changes are made.
DHS will help you prepare for changes to your benefits as they come. Be on the lookout for more information from DHS about your benefits.
You can help be ready for any changes by keeping your address and other contact information up-to-date with DHS and the US Postal Service.
