Healthy Michigan Plan

Medicaid

Our Healthy Michigan Plan is for adults ages 19 to 64 who meet income requirements. You can choose your own doctor.

Any changes in phone number, email, or address should be reported to the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS). You can do this by going to the MIBridges website at www.michigan.gov/mibridges. If you do not have an account, you will need to create an account by selecting “Register”. Once in your account, when reporting changes, please make sure you do so in both the profile section and the Report Changes area.  The Report Changes area is what the local office will use to update the address for your case.

The Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) is working to eliminate Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) as a health threat to Michiganders through the We Treat Hep C Initiative
