Preparing to serve New York Medicaid members Application and onboarding in progress

Food. Housing. Transportation. A place to begin.

When everyday life gets in the way of health, start here.

Food, housing, and transportation can all affect health. Medicaid Care Screening is preparing to help New York Medicaid members notice these needs and understand the right regional path forward.

The exact supplied AHC HRSN form structure is shown as a non-submitting demonstration. Identifying controls are disabled and empty, answers are temporary and not submitted, and our Unite Us connection is pending.

What help may include

Four parts of social care, explained clearly.

These services may be available to eligible members through an applicable Social Care Network pathway. A screening alone does not authorize any service.

01

Care management

Care navigation

A future Social Care Navigator can explain which navigation path fits a member’s Medicaid coverage and program criteria.

02

Housing

Housing support

Eligible members may be connected to housing-related supports designed around safety, stability, recovery, or a successful transition.

03

Nutrition

Food and nutrition support

Nutrition services may range from education to meals, groceries, food prescriptions, or cooking supplies for eligible members.

04

Transportation

Transportation support

A limited transportation pathway may help eligible members reach Enhanced HRSN services or related social-care management activities.

A demonstration of the screening journey

Questions, answered plainly

What to know about this non-submitting demonstration.

Is screening available now?

This demonstration does not submit a screening or referral. The exact supplied AHC HRSN form structure is shown, and our Unite Us connection is pending.

Does the planned service area determine eligibility?

No. Geography is only one consideration. Medicaid and service eligibility are determined through program processes.

Will Medicaid Care Screening provide food, housing, or rides?

No. Its proposed role is screening and connection; supports may be available through the appropriate regional network to eligible members.
