GUARANTEE HEALTH CARE FOR ALL NEW YORKERS

In January 2019, the City announced guaranteed care for all New Yorkers, a landmark initiative to 1) enroll New Yorkers in health insurance, including New York City’s public health insurance option, MetroPlus; and 2) guarantee anyone ineligible for insurance — including undocumented New Yorkers — direct access to Health + Hospitals (H+H) primary and specialty care physicians, pharmacies, and mental health and substance abuse services through a new program called NYC Care.

BOOST ENROLLMENT
The City will accelerate efforts to enroll eligible New Yorkers in insurance, particularly MetroPlus. MetroPlus provides free or affordable health insurance that connects insuranceeligible New Yorkers to a network of providers, and serves as an affordable, quality option for all New Yorkers, including those on Medicaid and Medicare, and those purchasing insurance from New York State of Health (New York’s health insurance marketplace). The City will connect more independent workers, City vendors, and City workers to MetroPlus, while also improving the quality of the MetroPlus customer
experience through improved access to clinical care, mental health services, and wellness rewards for healthy behavior.

LAUNCH NYC CARE TO CONNECT NEW YORKERS TO HEALTH SERVICES
NYC Care, launching in summer 2019, will connect thousands of New Yorkers who are ineligible for health insurance — including undocumented New Yorkers and those who cannot afford insurance — to reliable care. Once the new program is fully implemented in 2021, those enrolled will be able to
access the clinical services, coordinated care, and the customer service that people with health insurance are accustomed to experiencing. NYC Care is open to anyone who does not have an affordable insurance option, and will be priced on a sliding scale to ensure affordability. NYC Care will provide a primary care doctor and access to specialty care, prescription drugs, mental health services, hospitalization, and more.
