Change to the Mississippi Medicaid 1095-B Form Process
According to the Internal Revenue Service, because the individual shared responsibility payment is zero beginning in 2020, an individual does not need the information on Form 1095-B to file income taxes with the IRS. Therefore, the IRS is allowing reporting entities to furnish 1095-B forms upon request. If you would like to receive your Form 1095-B for the tax year, please submit your request by calling this number:
Gainwell Call Center:
1-800-884-3222
Step 1:
If you are a member (beneficiary), Press 1.
Step 2:
If you are calling about the statement of health coverage or proof of insurance form, Press 1.
You will need to listen to the recorded message and go to the next step to request your 1095B.
Step 3:
If you need to request a 1095B or have questions about this form, Press 1.
Step 4:
Have your Medicaid beneficiary number or beneficiary social security number on hand to enter or provide to validate your request.
