Who is Eligible for Enrollment in the Health Homes Program?
Anyone who has Medicaid and chronic health conditions, such as: diabetes, asthma, heart problems, HIV/AIDS, or a mental health diagnosis or substance use concern can choose to be enrolled in a Health Home. The services provided to Health Homes participants will be covered by New York State Medicaid. There is no cost to you to receive these services. You will not lose your current medical coverage by enrolling in a Health Home. If you have concerns about your current medical coverage, please speak with your current Care Manager.
How does the Health Homes Program Work?
You will have a Care Manager who will work with your doctor, and the other providers involved with your care. The team will write a plan of care tailored to you and designed to keep you healthy. All participants will work with their Care Manager to meet their medical, mental health, substance use, and supportive service needs. You will be asked to sign a consent form to allow your providers to share information and no information will be shared without your consent.
