VNSNY CHOICE SelectHealth
VNSNY CHOICE SelectHealth is a Special Needs Plan for
people with HIV/AIDS as well as uninfected homeless adults.
The plan is designed to improve the health and quality
of life of people with HIV/AIDS who live in Brooklyn, the
Bronx, Manhattan or Queens. Their children (under the age
of 21) can also join the plan and receive their health care
through the plan even if they do not have HIV or AIDS.
VNSNY CHOICE SelectHealth is committed to providing easy
access to expert HIV specialty care through an enhanced
network of hospitals and providers. The plan currently
offers all Medicaid covered benefits, and in the future, the
plan will include expanded behavioral health benefits for
all members, as well as new home and community-based
services for eligible members.
Each member has his or her own team of caregivers who,
led by a Care Manager, work together to coordinate a
member’s services and make sure he or she gets the care
they need. All members with HIV or AIDS choose or are
assigned an HIV Specialist as their Primary Care Provider.
