By Staff report

Beginning January 1, 2027, certain Healthy Indiana Plan members ages 19–64 will need to complete 80 hours each month through work, part time education, job training, or community service—unless exempt.
To help HIP members check to see if they would but subject to or exempt from HIP Work Requirements, the Family and Social Services Administration has created a HIP Work Requirements Pre-Screening Tool, available at myfssa.in.gov and in the “Am I Eligible to Receive Benefits?” section of FSSA Benefits Portal.
Through the pre-screening tool, individuals will be asked to provide information on:

If an exemption applies to them
Health-related questions
Work activities
Income

Once the information is entered, they will be able to review and summit their answers to see if they would be required to meet HIP Work Requirements. The information is entered anonymously and is not stored or shared. Responses are used only to generate an individual’s screening results and are not accessible after the session ends.
