Medicaid and Managed Care (MMC)

Medicaid Managed Care offers many New Yorkers a chance to choose a Medicaid health plan. Managed Care plans focus on preventive health care and provide enrollees with a medical home for themselves and their families. In many counties, once you are eligible for Medicaid, you can join a plan if there is one available and you want to join. However, there are some counties where families will have to join a plan. In these counties there are some individuals who don´t have to join. Enrollment in Medicaid managed care is available at any local Department of Social Services.
