At Healthfirst we believe every New Yorker deserves access to high-quality healthcare. For 25 years, the Medicaid QIP has been a vital program ensuring that millions of New Yorkers with Medicaid get proactive and quality care, from prenatal screenings and pediatric vaccination to management of chronic diseases like diabetes and asthma. Our provider partners have used QIP funding to improve access and care for their patients, for example offering evening and weekend hours to working families and expanding mental health support. Read more from our President and CEO Pat Wang about why it is vital to communities across New York that QIP is codified into statute and fully funded in the upcoming State budget. #ProtectQIPForNY
