Federal Budget Reconciliation Law Now in Effect: Impacts on MaineCare, SNAP & CoverME.gov

Jul 7, 2025

On July 4, H.R. 1 -- Budget Reconciliation was signed into law, enacting sweeping federal changes to Medicaid, nutrition assistance, and health insurance Marketplace programs. Many provisions take effect later this year or sometime between 2026--2028 and will fundamentally reshape -- and, in many cases, eliminate -- how many Maine people access health coverage and food supports.

Attention Providers: System Maintenance Disrupting Provider Maintenance Cases

At this time, providers are not able to submit Maintenance Cases in our enrollment system. The system is undergoing unplanned maintenance. We expect this maintenance to be complete later today, and will send a follow-up message when normal operations resume. Providers may submit New Enrollments and Revalidations as usual during this time.

If you have questions or concerns regarding this, please contact Kenneth Jamison, MaineCare Provider Enrollment Manager.
