| Solicitation Profile |
With the issuance of Executive Order #5, Governor Andrew M. Cuomo established the Medicaid Redesign Team (MRT) in January 2011, bringing together a group of health care stakeholders, experts and advocates from throughout New York State. The goals of the MRT are to improve overall health system quality and efficiency, streamline and focus health care administrative and financial structures, and reduce Medicaid costs while emphasizing the delivery of well-managed, cost-effective, quality health services.
The Affordable Housing Work Group was created by the MRT and charged with developing recommendations for changes to housing programs for high-need Medicaid beneficiaries, such as the homeless, precariously housed or those living in institutional settings, which would reduce the growth in Medicaid spending in New York, while maintaining or improving health outcomes for Medicaid beneficiaries.
One recommendation of the MRT Affordable Housing Work Group was to provide funding for the housing needs of Medicaid members enrolled in New York’s Health Home program. In furtherance of that recommendation, the New York State Department of Health’s (DOH) Medicaid Redesign Team launched the Health Home Supportive Housing Program and is issuing this Request for Application (RFA) for re-procurement to continue aiding the participants currently being served, and expand the program to new participants. The Health Home Supportive Housing Program is a prior program that was in effect from 10/1/2014-9/30/2018.
The New York State Department of Health (DOH) is issuing this Request for Application (RFA) to seek applications from Providers (also referred to as the provider or as the applicant) for funds to be used to provide rental subsidies and non-medical services to provide housing for homeless or unstably housed Medicaid members who are enrolled in New York State’s Health Home Program. The rental subsidies and services provided under the Health Home Supportive Housing Program are intended to be a means to provide affordable and stable housing and services, to thereby improve access to health services and the health status of Health Home members who are high-cost, high-utilizers of Medicaid services. This program will serve participants that are already enrolled in the program and single individuals who are enrolled in Health Home and may include a certain number of families with minors under the age of 18 years old.
