NY Medicaid

Managed Long Term Care (MLTC)

Administered by state-approved managed care plans (three tracks: MLTCP, MAP, and PACE).

Dementia-specific eligibility

Managed Long Term Care eligibility rests on an assessment of the help a person needs with daily activities; the specific functional criteria are not stated on that overview, so confirm them with the plan or the local district. The cited page does not describe any dementia-specific eligibility route, so ask the office that administers the programme how a dementia diagnosis is weighed in that assessment.

Asset limits: This state does not publish asset limits on its own program page. Confirm the current figures with the office that administers the program.

What makes NY different: New York's Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program (CDPAP) lets families self-direct care and hire their own caregiver, including certain relatives, rather than being assigned one by an agency.

How to apply: Eligibility is determined through the New York Independent Assessor (NYIA), a separate step from enrolling in an MLTC plan, which then determines the actual weekly hours of care authorized.
