Medicaid Managed Care (MMC): If you’re a resident of New York State and qualify for Medicaid, you may be eligible for Medicaid Managed Care (MMC). This is a healthcare delivery system in which Medicaid contracts with Managed Care Organizations (MCOs) to deliver and manage your health care services. The key objectives of Medicaid Managed Care are to improve health plan performance and quality—and achieve better outcomes.

Managed Long Term Care (MLTC): People who have long-term health problems or disabilities may be eligible to enroll with a Managed Long Term Care (MLTC). MLTC is for people who are chronically ill or disabled, and wish to continue living within the comfort of their own home. It may include health services at your home, such as nursing, home health aide, occupational, physical and speech therapies. You can also receive personal care, such as help with bathing, getting dressed, running errands, and additional services such as home delivered meals, emergency services, and CDPAP.

Medicaid Advantage Plus (MAP): Medicaid Advantage Plus plans were designed to merge Medicaid and Medicare services together, to better and more efficiently manage both programs. They include all the home care services mentioned in MLTC above, in addition to medical services. To see the spectrum of services covered, you can read this booklet (PDF) prepared by New York Medicaid Choice.

Program for All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly (PACE): You may only enroll onto a PACE plan if you are are 55 years of age or older. These plans include coverage for Medicaid long-term care services—such as in-home care and personal care services. They may also cover social daycare, nursing home care, specialty health needs like dental and physical therapy, and Medicare services.
