Summer To-Do: Maintain Health Insurance
On an annual basis, the State of Maryland requires Maryland Medicaid recipients to “redetermine,” or re-apply to maintain their health insurance benefits. Renewing your health insurance benefits with Jai Medical Systems ensures that you will continue to receive healthcare benefits without interruption.
When do I have to renew my Medicaid coverage?
Jai Medical Systems and the State of Maryland will contact you at least 30 days before your coverage is scheduled to end. You may receive a phone call, text message, email, and/or letter in the mail.
How do I renew my Medicaid coverage?

Vaccine Highlight – Tdap and Zoster Shingles
Vaccinations are an important way to protect yourself against illness from certain viruses, infections, and disease. In this newsletter, we are highlighting two important vaccines for adults to consider, Shingles and Tdap.
Tdap Vaccine
The Tdap vaccine can prevent tetanus (painful stiffening of the muscles), diphtheria (difficulty breathing, heart failure, or death), and pertussis (whooping cough). The CDC recommends that individuals ages 7 years and older receive the Tdap vaccine. If you have never received the Tdap vaccine, you may be eligible to receive this vaccine. If you have previously received the Tdap vaccine, you may need a booster dose of either Tdap or “Td” every 10 years, or after 5 years in the case of a severe or dirty wound or burn. In addition, if you are pregnant, your doctor may suggest the Tdap vaccine in your third trimester.
Shingle Vaccine
The shingles vaccine, or the recombinant zoster vaccine, assists with the prevention of herpes zoster (shingles) and related complications. The CDC recommends that adults 50 years and older get two doses of the shingles vaccine called Shingrix to prevent shingles as well as complications from the disease. Adults, 19 years and older who have weakened immune systems, should also get two doses of Shingrix, as they have a higher risk of getting shingles and experiencing shingles-related complications.
To learn more about whether you should receive these important vaccinations, please speak with your Primary Care Provider today. If you need assistance with scheduling an appointment with your Primary Care Provider, please contact our Customer Service Department at 1-888-JAI-1999.
Important Reminder: New Prescription Drug Co-Payment Requirement
Starting May 1, 2024, all Maryland HealthChoice Managed Care Organizations were required to implement a Pharmacy Prescription Co-Payment. Therefore, beginning on May 1, 2024, Jai Medical Systems implemented the following co-payments for prescription drugs:
- $1.00 co-payment on new and refilled preferred brand name and generic drugs, and HIV/AIDS drugs.
- $3.00 co-payment on new and refilled non-preferred brand name drugs.
Please note, in accordance with applicable federal and state statutory requirements, individuals under the age of 21, pregnant women, and Native Americans are not required to pay co-payments. Co-payments also do not apply to family planning drugs.
Pregnant, or think you may be pregnant? Call today for no Prescription Drug Co-Payment!
Jai Medical Systems does not charge a co-payment for prescriptions for pregnant members. But, you must call us to let us know you are pregnant! Call us at 1-888-JAI-1999 to let us know that you are pregnant and to avoid having to pay a co-payment for your prescriptions at the pharmacy!
