Amida Care is a non-profit Medicaid HIV Special Needs Plan (SNP). An HIV SNP is a health plan specifically designed for Persons Living With HIV/AIDS (PLWHA). Amida Care works with its Members and Providers to improve access to care. By having nurse care coordinators, member service representatives, community case managers, and other plan staff available to assist Members, it is easier for them to get the care they need and stay in care. Comprehensive assistance for Members and Providers is just a phone call away, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Amida Care was founded by seven Community Based Organizations (CBO's). Harlem United, Housing Works, Project Samaritan AIDS Services (PSI), Promesa, St. Mary's, the Greyston Foundation and Village Care of NY.
