Managed Long-Term
Care (MLTC) Plan

At MetroPlusHealth’s Managed Long-Term Care Plan, we help eligible New Yorkers receive the long-term care services and support they need to live safely, comfortably, and independently in their homes and communities. We coordinate a wide range of healthcare and supportive services, including home care, personal care assistance, adult day health care, therapies, medical equipment, and care management. With a person-centered approach, MetroPlusHealth works closely with members, caregivers, and healthcare providers to create personalized care plans that promote health, independence, and quality of life.

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.

SCNs for Medicaid Members: Support for Health and Daily Needs

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:

You Are Eligible if You Are…

  • 21 years old or older

  • Eligible for Medicaid

  • Living in the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Staten Island or Queens

  • In need of long-term care or nursing home-level care

  • Able to remain in your home without jeopardizing your health or safety

  • In need of long-term care services for at least four months from the time of enrollment

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.
