VNSNY CHOICE FIDA Complete
VNSNY CHOICE FIDA Complete is a comprehensive health
plan that combines Medicare and Medicaid benefits for
New Yorkers who need long-term care. Called the Fully
Integrated Duals Advantage Plan, or FIDA, it was made
possible by a partnership between the New York State
Department of Health and CMS (the Centers for Medicare
& Medicaid Services).
Members who need long-term care can have complete
coverage with one plan instead of two. The plan includes
a special emphasis on Care Coordination to help member’s
live safely and independently at home and stay out of a
nursing home.
