The purpose of the Ryan White Part B Support Services Program is to offer critical support to individuals living with HIV or AIDS.  The program provides a range of services, including medical transportation for non-Medicaid eligible individuals, housing advocacy, and one-time emergency financial assistance for essential needs such as utilities, medication not covered by ADAP, and food.  It aims to improve access to necessary healthcare and stabilize living conditions for eligible residents of Suffolk County, helping them manage their health and well-being effectively. 

The Chronic Health Care Coordination program helps individuals manage their health, behavioral health, and social needs in a comprehensive manner. The goal is to ensure that individuals receive the care necessary to stay healthy, out of the emergency room, and out of the hospital.

Individuals may be eligible for the Chronic Health Care Coordination program if they are receiving health coverage through Medicaid and have two or more chronic illness such as:

• Heart Disease
• Diabetes
• Asthma
• Hepatitis C
• Obesity
• Substance Abuse

Individuals only need one of the following chronic diagnosis to be eligible for the program:

• HIV/AIDS/HIV(-)
• Mental Health

The 1115 Medicaid Waiver Program provides eligible individuals and families with support to improve health outcomes and connects individuals to essential resources that strengthen independence and stability.
