Health Insurance: Facilitated Enrollment for the Aged, Blind and Disabled
You can get free in-person assistance to apply for Medicaid, Medicare and the Medicare Savings Program, which helps cover Medicare costs if you are:
- 65 and older
- living with a disability
- visually impaired
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the need to limit the number of people gathered in one place, in-person health insurance enrollment services will be suspended until further notice.
During this period, you can call 347-396-4705 for information or to schedule a telephone enrollment appointment. Our enrollment staff will continue to help New Yorkers sign up for low- and no-cost health insurance by phone. Help is available regardless of immigration status and in many languages.
