Your state's Medicaid rules

MassHealth (Massachusetts Medicaid)

Massachusetts

January 1, 2027
Work & education requirements take effect January 1, 2027. Members are not affected until their first 2027 renewal.
If you lose MassHealth for failing work and education requirements, you will also not be eligible for subsidized coverage through the Massachusetts Health Connector. You can reapply to MassHealth at any time.

MassHealth members ages 19–64 who are not pregnant, do not have children younger than 14, and do not have a qualifying disability. You must meet requirements for at least one month between your last renewal and your next renewal.

  • Work 80+ hours/month (paid or unpaid, including work done for goods or services)
  • MassHealth determines your income to be $580+ per month (regardless of hours worked; seasonal workers: average $580/month over a 6-month period)
  • Volunteer 80+ hours/month at a non-partisan public or nonprofit organization (e.g., soup kitchen, blood drive)
  • Participate in an approved job training program (to learn skills to get a job) for 80+ hours/month
  • Be enrolled at least half-time in an educational program: high school, GED program, community college, or four-year college
  • Do a total of work, volunteer, work program, or school hours of 80+ hours/month (any combination)
  • Age 65 or older
  • Age 18 or younger
  • Pregnant or less than 12 months postpartum (regardless of pregnancy outcome)
  • Parent who provides care to a child younger than 14 or a disabled individual
  • Guardian of a child younger than 14 or a disabled individual
  • "Caretaker relative" — related to and primary caregiver for a child younger than 14 or a disabled individual who lives with you
  • "Family caregiver" — lives with and provides regular care to a child younger than 14 or disabled individual, AND is related to that child/individual AND provides at least 80 hours of care/month (Note: this is MassHealth's wording. The national law is wider—living with the person and giving regular care, OR being related and giving regular care, OR giving 80+ hours of care a month can each be enough. Check with MassHealth to see how they apply this.)
  • Living with a disability that seriously limits ability to perform daily tasks (bathing, dressing, eating) without help
  • Alcohol or drug addiction
  • Serious mental health condition (e.g., schizophrenia or major depression)
  • Serious or complex medical condition requiring frequent care (e.g., cancer or heart failure)
  • Blindness or disability based on Social Security rules
  • Eligible for Medicare Part A
  • Enrolled in Medicare Part B
  • Younger than 26 and had Medicaid when you aged out of foster care
  • Receiving TAFDC cash help and meeting TAFDC work rules
  • Served in U.S. Armed Forces with a total disability rating from the VA
  • Member of a household receiving SNAP benefits where DTA says you must meet work rules
  • Participating in certain substance use disorder treatment and rehabilitation programs
  • Inmate of a public institution, or were an inmate in the previous three months
  • Certain American Indians or Alaska Natives

MassHealth will first check its own records and data sources to see if you meet the rules or don't have to. If they do not have enough information, they will ask you for more information as part of your renewal. In some cases, they may request more proof that you meet the work and school rules or don't have to. For volunteering specifically: starting in 2027, if you have to report volunteering, you report the activity, the months, and the hours — and generally won't initially have to submit supporting documentation. Verification rules are expected to tighten in 2028.

  • Start tracking work, community service, work program, and school hours now — be ready to show you meet requirements at your next renewal
  • Gather important medical or legal documents in case you need to show you don't have to meet the rule
  • Make sure MassHealth has your current mailing address, cell phone number, and email address
  • Log in to www.mahealthconnector.org to review your household's information and make changes
  • Report any changes in circumstances (pregnancy, immigration status, disability status, household changes) to MassHealth

Common questions

Questions people ask us

Log80 saves each log with the date, the time, and the type of activity. It puts them all in a monthly report you can hand in to your state Medicaid office. Your state may still ask for other proof, like pay records. Ask them what they take.

It can. If you are a parent, guardian, caretaker relative or family caregiver of a child 13 or younger, or of someone with a disability, you may not have to meet the monthly goal at all. Pick that in log80 setup, then tell your state Medicaid office. If you still need to meet the goal (for example, you give under 80 hours of care a month), unpaid hours caring for a child 13 or younger or a person with a disability count as unpaid work toward your 80 hours only when they are not related to you and do not live with you. You can log those hours under Other. Check with your state, since each state sets its own steps. Source: CMS interim final rule, 91 FR 33348 (June 3, 2026).

Volunteer hours count as community service hours toward your 80 hours. This usually means unpaid work for a nonprofit, a public school, a library, or another community group. Your state may have its own list. Here are some examples:

  • Food pantries and soup kitchens
  • Blood drives and community health groups
  • Public schools, libraries, and government offices
  • Animal shelters run by nonprofits or the government
  • Other well-known community service groups

Your logs stay saved in your account. If you need to explain a gap, talk to your state Medicaid office. Log80 gives you a record of what you logged.

Download it or print it. Give it to your state Medicaid office if they ask, like when you renew. Ask them how often they need it.
