The easiest way to close your Medicaid is to log in to your account in Medicaid's Self-Service Portal. It takes four steps and no more than five minutes to close your Medicaid.
When you log into the Self-Service Portal, select the option "Request closure of your case" and select "yes" to confirm you want to close your case.
You will be asked to review your household information and sign with an electronic signature to confirm your closure.
You will get a confirmation number when the process is complete.
