New York Needs Choice

Our mission is to develop and advance self-directed programs of community-based long-term care services and supports for Medicaid-eligible people with disabilities and seniors that ensure full participant input, choice, and control in New York.

Our Guiding Principles

True Choice: All HCBS/MLTSS programs shall provide consumers with the real choices to choose any service delivery from at least three qualified authorized providers in their respective region.

True Control: All HCBS/MLTSS programs must embrace the principles of independent living, including choice, control and dignity of risk. Control means the unimpeded ability to self-direct their services, including hiring, training, scheduling, directing and terminating caregivers.

Embracing Inclusion: Consumers. Advocates, Caregivers, Providers and other community stakeholders must be provided meaningful and full participation in the development, design, implementation, oversight and improvement of Medicaid funded programs for HCBS/MLTSS.

Community Integration: All HCBS/MLTSS programs must embrace the community integration mandate of the Americans with Disabilities Act and the Olmstead decision to deliver long-term care services in the most integrated setting appropriate to the individual’s needs in non- institutional, non-congregate settings.
