Virginia Health Care Foundation

SignUpNow is a resource for community-based organizations dedicated to helping eligible Virginians enroll in state-sponsored health insurance programs through Medicaid/FAMIS.

Created by the Virginia Coalition for Children’s Health, SignUpNow is the training and technical assistance arm of the Virginia Health Care Foundation’s Medicaid/FAMIS outreach & enrollment initiative.  Today, SignUpNow receives funding through a contract with the Virginia Department of Medical Assistance Services to provide materials, publications and workshops.

Among the services provided by SignUpNow are:

• Live, virtual training workshops that cover the “ins and outs” of Medicaid/FAMIS eligibility and enrollment;
• Online, on-demand training modules;
• Tool Kits containing comprehensive Medicaid/FAMIS eligibility and enrollment information, including fact sheets, step-by-step instructions and lists of resources;
• A quarterly e-newsletter providing updates on Medicaid/FAMIS policy changes; highlights of best-practices; and notices of new resources, upcoming workshops, and other opportunities;
• Technical assistance regarding policy, eligibility rules or issues, along with trouble-shooting for local enrollment efforts or individual cases that become problematic (email us at signupnow@vhcf.org or call 804-828-6062); and
• Speakers and presentations to raise awareness about Medicaid/FAMIS and the link between health and access to health insurance.
