Managed Long Term Care<\/strong>, or MLTC<\/strong>, is a plan that arranges long term services for homebound chronically ill or disabled people, and is covered by the New York Medicaid Program.<\/span><\/p>\n

1) The New York State Department of Health reviews, approves, and lists all MLTC insurance plans in New York.<\/span><\/p>\n

2) There are three types of MLTC programs in New York:\u00a0<\/span>PACE<\/b>,\u00a0<\/span>MLTC Partial Capitation Plans<\/b>, and\u00a0<\/span>Medicaid Advantage Plus<\/b>.<\/span><\/p>\n

3)\u00a0<\/span>PACE<\/b>, or Program of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly, covers all Medicare and Medicaid programs, and requires members to be over 55 and eligible for nursing home admission.<\/span><\/p>\n

4)\u00a0<\/span>FIDA<\/b>\u00a0(Fully Integrated Duals Advantage) participants get all their covered Medicare and Medicaid services from one plan, including long term services and supports (LTSS) and prescription drugs.<\/span><\/p>\n

5)\u00a0<\/span>MLTC Partial Capitated<\/b>\u00a0plans only cover Medicaid long term care services, not primary medical care services.<\/span><\/p>\n

6)\u00a0<\/span>Medicare Advantage<\/b>\u00a0Plans are NOT the same as Medicare Advantage Plus. Medicare Advantage Plans do provide primary medical care paid for by Medicare and\/or Medicaid.<\/span><\/p>\n

7)\u00a0<\/span>Medicare Advantage Plus<\/b>\u00a0provides both Medicare and Medicaid primary medical care and long term medical care.<\/span><\/p>\n

8) MLTC does NOT affect other Medicaid and Medicare services. \u00a0Any services, coverage, and benefits covered by Medicaid and Medicare will not be lost if you receive MLTC.<\/span><\/p>\n

9) Eligibility for MLTC includes people who meet the age requirement, are either dual or non-dual eligible, and requires community or home-based long term care services for over 120 days. Dual eligibility is when an individual is eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid coverage.<\/span><\/p>\n

10) CDPAS (Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Services) is a statewide Medicaid program that allows patients who are eligible to receive home care from a family member who can actually be paid for their services.<\/span><\/p>\n
