Managed Long-Term Care

MetroPlusHealth Managed Long-Term Care is a health care plan especially designed for people 21 years or older, who live in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan, and Staten Island who need long-term care services, and have Medicaid. MetroPlusHealth Managed Long-Term Care offers the assistance you need to live safely at home.

Social Care Networks (SCNs) connect Medicaid members to vital community resources that go beyond traditional healthcare. These services help address everyday needs such as housing support, food assistance, employment resources, childcare, and transportation, ensuring members have the support they need to live healthier and more stable lives. By linking medical care with social services, SCNs provide a more complete approach to health, helping Medicaid members overcome barriers, reduce stress, and focus on their overall well-being.

Our members can access these services at the following participating SCNs:

Your Care Plan:

When you join MetroPlusHealth Managed Long-Term Care, you will be assigned a Care Manager. Your Care Manager will work with you, your family, your primary care physician (PCP) or others that you choose to work on your behalf. Your Care Manager will develop an individual care plan for you.

Your Care Manager will develop a care plan that is specific to meeting your individual medical, physical, emotional, and social needs, based on the initial comprehensive assessment. Your written care plan covers the services you need, how often you need them and how long you will need them for. Your care plan is reviewed at least every six months, but can be reviewed more often if your condition and needs change. You will receive a copy of your care plan.

Know your rights and protections against surprise medical bills!

When you get emergency care or are treated by an out-of-network provider at an in-network hospital or ambulatory surgical center, you are protected from balance billing. In these cases, you shouldn’t be charged more than your plan’s copayments, coinsurance and/or deductible. Learn more here.
