NYS Health Exchange Coverage Update

Due to the uncertainty caused by conflicting and often confusing information available on the NY State of Health/Health Plan Marketplace website, we have been receiving many calls inquiring which of these insurance plans we accept at our office. The Health Insurance Exchange is updated yearly, and information concerning your policy may change. We will attempt to keep you informed as best as we can. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the office and we will be happy to assist you.

Currently the only plan offered which we accept at our office is the Empire Blue Cross Gatekeeper (formerly Pathway). Please be advised that this policy will NOT be offered by Empire in 2020! If you currently have Gatekeeper (formerly Pathway) plan, we will continue to provide medical care services for your child until December 31, 2019. Starting January 1, 2020, your child must have insurance plan coverage that we do accept to continue to receive medical services from the office going forward. Please see the list of insurance plans we accept as a reference.

In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, we are now offering Telemedicine/Video Visits and Rapid COVID PCR Testing in office. Meet with your doctor to get a prescribed treatment plan, refill or get a new prescription and much more all from the safety and comfort of your home.
