How do AHCCCS Members receive text or email messages?

When someone applies for AHCCCS, their email address and cell phone number will be added to AHCCCS Connect.

If a member believes their contact information is not correct, they can sign into their Health-e-Arizona Plus account at www.healthearizonaplus.gov, create a new HEAplus account, or call 1-855-HEA-PLUS (1-855-432-7587) to ensure their contact information is up to date.

If AHCCCS already has the member’s cellphone number, AHCCCS will send SMS texts unless the member opts out. If we don’t have the member’s cell number, we’ll contact them by email or voice call, depending on the information AHCCCS currently has for the member.

How do AHCCCS members opt out?

Members can cancel at any time by texting "STOP" to the phone number that sent them the text, following the voice prompts provided during automated voice calls, or by calling 1-855-HEA-PLUS (1-855-432-7587) to opt-out.

Can AHCCCS members rejoin after opting out?

Yes, members just need to text the keyword “START” to the phone number that sent them the text.

Does it cost me money?

It depends on the member’s mobile carrier. Standard message and data rates may apply.
