Retroactive Apple Health coverage for COFA islanders

Washington Apple Health (Medicaid) was restored to Washington residents from the Republic of Palau, the Republic of the Marshall Islands, and the Federated States of Micronesia. As of July 1, most Compact of Free Association (COFA) islanders enrolled in COFA Islander programs transitioned to Apple Health. COFA islanders who are new to Apple Health or currently enrolled and have unpaid bills from December 2020, forward, may be eligible for retroactive Apple Health coverage.

Retroactive is not automatic, COFA islanders must meet eligibility requirements for the months requested. Contact COFAQuestions@hca.wa.gov today to find out if you are eligible!
