Use the “Next” and “Back” arrows at the bottom of the application.
Steps to renew BadgerCare Plus:
1. Click “Renew my Benefits” on the left side of the screen.
2. Make sure it says “Benefits to Renew Now." Click on the benefits you want to renew. If it says “Benefits to Renew Later” don’t renew or you may lose your benefits early.
3. Answer all the questions in each section the best you can, and click “Next” when you are ready to go on.
If the question is hard to answer, click “comments” to explain and click “save” when you are done.
After each section, you will see your answers. Make sure you have answered the best you can and then click “Next.”
