Be yourself with Amida Care

Amida Care is a not-for-profit health plan in New York, NY, that specializes in providing comprehensive health coverage and coordinated care to Medicaid members living with or at higher risk for HIV.

In 1999, the New York State Department of Health in collaboration with the AIDS Institute provided grant funding for the development of customized approaches to chronic disease management. In response, six community-based New York City HIV/AIDS providers came together to develop and launch Amida Care (then Vida Care) in 2003.

We currently serve 7,000+ members throughout the five boroughs of New York City, including people living with HIV/AIDS; people who are experiencing homelessness, regardless of HIV status; and people of transgender experience, regardless of HIV status. We provide individualized attention and support to our members to help them live their authentic, best life.
