WHAT IS IT?

Understanding Care Management

Care management is ongoing support from a care manager who helps coordinate your family's health care, services, and appointments. In New York, care management is provided by Care Management Agencies (CMAs) that work with Health Homes. It's available to children and adults with Medicaid who have qualifying chronic health or behavioral health conditions.
