Core Plan - Health Care For Adults With No Dependent Children

Waitlist 

At 12:00 P.M. (noon) on October 9, 2009, we will suspend the BadgerCare Plus Core Plan enrollment process. We will no longer be enrolling new members in the Core Plan after 12:00 P.M. (noon) October 9, 2009 because the total number of applications we have received is greater than the number of slots available. We will create a waitlist and people on the waitlist will be able to enroll in the Core Plan as space becomes available.

After that deadline, we will still accept applications for the FoodShare and Family Planning Waiver programs and we encourage you to apply for these programs.

If you do not apply for the Core Plan before 12:00 P.M (noon), October 9, 2009 and wish to enroll as space becomes available, go to ACCESS.wi.gov or call the Enrollment Services Center at 1-800-291-2002. We will ask you to answer some questions to see if you may be eligible for the Core Plan before putting you on the waitlist. You will not be asked to pay the $60 application fee until you are able to enroll in the Core Plan.

If your name is added to the Core Plan waitlist, we will let you know when there is an opening and tell you what you have to do to get signed up. While you are on the waitlist, you should let us know if you have any changes in your contact information such as address and phone number so that we can reach you when there is an opening in the program.

If your name is added to the waitlist, please contact the Enrollment Services Center if you:

  • Become disabled,
  • Turn age 65,
  • Move out of Wisconsin,
  • Become eligible for Medicare or Medicaid,
  • Obtain health insurance,
  • Start a job that offers health insurance coverage, or
  •  Have a related child under age 19 move into your home

If one of these things changes, you may be eligible for another health care plan that does not have a waitlist.

For people who apply for the BadgerCare Plus Core Plan before 12:00 P.M. (noon) October 9, 2009:

  • If you submit an application and pay your fee before 12:00 P.M. (noon) October 9, 2009, your application will be processed and you will be enrolled if you meet the program rules.
  • If you submit your application before 12:00 P.M. (noon) October 9, 2009, but you have not yet paid your fee, you must pay it within 30 days from the date you applied. If your fee is not paid on time, your application will expire and you will have to add your name to the waitlist.
