Health Home Care Management helps streamline care and improve client outcomes.
Managing multiple chronic medical conditions can be difficult and time-consuming. Our health home care management program is designed to help people manage their physical and behavioral health care and lead healthier, more satisfying lives.
The Bridge offers health home care management services for individuals covered by Medicaid and living with: a) two or more chronic medical conditions; b) HIV/AIDS; or c) a diagnosis of serious mental illness.
Health Home Care Coordination
The Health Home Care Coordination program helps individuals living with chronic illnesses manage their health and access primary and specialty health care services, reducing reliance on emergency rooms and preventing hospitalizations.
A dedicated care manager provides services, support, and information, helping clients stay healthy and in charge of their care. The Bridge serves eligible members in Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Manhattan.
Our Approach
Understanding that health home care coordination encompasses physical health, mental health, and general well-being, care managers connect clients to vital community resources for all health care and social service needs.
The Bridge's comprehensive network of relationships with medical and social service providers throughout New York City allows our staff to be responsive to clients' needs, connecting them to the services that will benefit them most.
