Amida Care

About Amida Care

Amida Care is a private, not-for‐profit health plan providing coverage and coordinated care to New York City Medicaid members with chronic conditions, including HIV/AIDS and behavioral health disorders. We serve Medicaid recipients who are living with HIV/AIDS or people who are homeless or of transgender experience (regardless of HIV status). People with complex health conditions need access to providers with specialized knowledge, and Amida Care offers a wide network of top health care providers. As the largest Medicaid special needs health plan (SNP) in New York State, Amida Care has improved health care quality and reduced costs by developing innovative care management programs. Amida Care is more than a health plan—we strive to create a wellness community. Our “Live Your Life” program offers free monthly member events held throughout the five boroughs of New York City, where Amida Care members and their guests learn about ways to get and stay healthy physically, mentally, and spiritually. Events offer opportunities to learn about nutrition, healthy relationships, art therapy, yoga, meditation, Latin and African dance, aromatherapy, and more. A variety of member engagement activities such as town hall meetings and a Member Advisory Council encourage members to participate in and provide feedback to their health plan to ensure that their needs are being met.
