Every New Yorker deserves access to affordable, high-quality healthcare. For 25 years, the Medicaid Quality Incentive Program (QIP) has been a vital tool for ensuring that New Yorkers with Medicaid receive essential preventative and proactive care. To protect access to high-quality healthcare, the QIP should be fully funded and codified in the upcoming state budget. Learn more: ProtectQIPForNY.com

The Medicaid Quality Incentive Program (QIP) helps providers like SBH Health System provide high-quality care for New Yorkers in underserved communities — from prenatal screenings to management of chronic diseases like diabetes. However, the QIP is not written into law and funding has been drastically reduced in recent years. In this year’s budget, New York State should protect the QIP by fully funding it and codifying it into law. Learn more: ProtectQIPForNY.com
