On April 4, 2024, in honor of National Public Health Week, city and state agencies held a citywide day of action in New York City to encourage undocumented New Yorkers age 65 and older to enroll in the newly expanded Medicaid health plan.
Effective January 1, the Medicaid program was expanded to include undocumented seniors who are income eligible in New York State. Previously, coverage for older undocumented residents was limited to coverage for emergency medical visits. To reach undocumented New Yorkers who may qualify, the New York City Mayor's Office of Community Engagement, NYC Care staff and their partners distributed information in multiple languages to areas of the city with large immigrant populations. New Yorkers who meet the criteria can connect with the Office of Public Affairs' GetCoveredNYC program or go directly to the New York City Department of Health website to register. Those already enrolled in Emergency Medicaid will be automatically transferred to this expanded coverage and will have the opportunity to choose a new plan. For more information, visit nyc.gov/ExpandedMedicaid. NYC Health hospitals are committed to reducing barriers to health care by empowering New Yorkers to live the healthiest lives possible. The health system strongly supports coverage for all by expanding Essential Plan eligibility to extend coverage to individuals who are not currently eligible for health insurance due to their immigration status. “Expanding Medicaid to undocumented New Yorkers age 65 and older is a critical step forward toward more equitable public health in our city,” said Adrienne Lever, executive director of the Mayor's Office of Public Affairs. “I am proud of the dedicated efforts of our city, state and community partners to ensure that seniors, regardless of their immigration status, receive the care they deserve.” Through the strategic work of Community Engagement, we are breaking down barriers to health and access to insurance for some of New York's most vulnerable residents.” “Previously, undocumented seniors living in New York were limited to receiving Medicaid only in emergency situations, making it difficult to effectively manage health care for one of our most vulnerable populations,” said Amir Bassiri, New York State Medicaid Director. “This expansion is fundamental to our commitment to addressing health inequities and advancing health equity.” “Undocumented adults are more likely to work in jobs that do not provide health benefits. They have historically faced restrictions on participation in government programs, forcing them to forgo preventive services and screenings and rely on costly emergency room care as their only option,” said Commissioner of Health Dr. James McDonald. “This expansion of Medicaid eligibility for immigrants in New York is the state's recognition of the importance of health care equity, especially for those age 65 and older. This critical step is consistent with the City's ongoing efforts to create a healthy New York for older adults,” said Department on Aging Commissioner Lorraine Cortez-Vazquez. “The Department of Aging is committed to supporting the state’s efforts to attract, educate and enroll immigrant seniors to access this unique health coverage.” “As a primary care physician, I am thrilled to support the citywide effort to educate older New Yorkers about Medicaid expansion, providing them with quality, affordable health insurance. Whether someone is managing a chronic illness or getting a routine check-up with a doctor, they will all gain peace of mind knowing that they now have insurance coverage regardless of their income level or immigration status, said Dr. Jonathan Jimenez, MPH , Executive Director of NYC Care at NYC Health+ Hospitals. “I thank our government and community partners, and our network of volunteers, for their commitment to reducing health inequalities and supporting the development of vibrant, healthy communities.” “Health care is every person's right, and in New York we recognize that everyone deserves access to quality health care, regardless of their immigration status,” said Health Commissioner Dr. Ashwin Wasan. “I encourage all New Yorkers to take advantage of these benefits and sign up today because there is no path to healthier, longer lives for ALL New Yorkers without access to healthcare.” Marina Lagunova

Martha gave me back my family and my meaning in life! I will be grateful to her for the rest of my days. I will leave her number +380931150260 Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram
I didn't believe that anything could be fixed in my situation. It was the end... I knew it. I had ruined everything myself: I had cheated on someone else, my wife found out, packed her things, took the children, and simply disappeared from my life. All that remained was emptiness, silence, and the feeling that I was the biggest fool in the world. My friends had turned away, the walls at home were cold, and in my head there was only one thing: I had lost everything. In this state, I went to the fortune teller Marfa. Not even with hope... more out of despair. But Marfa said things that only someone with a deeper understanding could know. She didn't judge, didn't pressure, but seemed to look straight into my soul and saw not only my guilt, but also my pain, the regret that I couldn't express to anyone. She said that all was not lost, that my wife's heart was not completely closed. She performed a ritual, gave instructions on what not to do and, conversely, how to proceed. I did everything she said, even though at times it seemed pointless. And then something happened that I'm still afraid to believe. My wife got in touch herself. Then... the first conversation, the first look without hatred, the first tears. And then she came back. With the children. Returned to the house that was once ours, but for me had become an emptiness. Today I understand it was a true miracle. And if anyone says Martha doesn't help... let them first experience what I experienced. She didn't just give me back my wife. She gave me back my family, my meaning in life! I will be grateful to her for the rest of my days. I will leave her number +380931150260 Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram

Coding for alcohol addiction Over the years of working in the United States and Europe, Dr. Natalia Schmidt's name has become well known to those seeking not only medical help, but also true relief from alcohol addiction. For many years she has been helping people return to sobriety, confidence and harmony with themselves. Her methodology combines the traditions of classical psychiatry with modern techniques from the American school of hypnosis. The foundation of her approach is the famous coding. Dr. Schmidt goes back to the roots: back in 1912, the eminent psychiatrist Vladimir Bekhterev described the phenomenon of emotional stress therapy, and decades later, psychiatrist Alexander Dovzhenko developed a method for overcoming alcohol addiction known as coding. Dr. Natalia Schmidt developed these ideas, combining them with modern knowledge about the functioning of the brain and subconscious. Her unique coding system is based on identifying the root cause, the internal psychological trauma that influenced alcohol addiction. Coding is a kind of mental reset and reinforcement of a sober lifestyle. The treatment process takes place in a calm, trusting atmosphere, and is strictly confidential. The main thing is the result. The person stops being trapped by addiction and regains control of their life. Many remember these meetings with gratitude, calling them "the beginning of a new life." In addition to treating alcohol addiction, Dr. Schmidt successfully assists with smoking cessation. She also helps with stress, anxiety disorders, insomnia, phobias, and loss of confidence. She uses psychiatric hypnosis and emotional adjustment techniques to help restore inner balance and self-confidence. Appointments are available at convenient times, including evenings and weekends, making them especially convenient for those living the fast pace of a big city and traveling from other states and even countries. If you're looking for professional help to overcome alcohol addiction, Dr. Natalia Schmidt can help. You'll be admired again, just like before you were called an alcoholic. Phone number for appointment: 917-656-6190 The interview was recorded by Marina Lagunova, New York

I'm writing this with trembling hands... I still can't believe that he's here, sleeping next to me, hugging me at night, and not her. My husband left... Not just left... he was taken from his job by a woman with no shame or conscience. I felt him slipping away: the coldness in his eyes, the distance, the lies. He left without looking back. He left me with a child, with empty walls and a broken heart. We were together for 13 years... 13 years of love, pain, joy. And then it all collapsed in an instant. I was dying inside. No one understood how much pain it was. My friends said, "Forget it." But I couldn't. My soul was breaking. He was mine. I knew it. In my heart. In despair, I found reviews of Matushka Raisa on Google. I wrote to her in tears. I don't remember what I wrote... everything was like a fog. She answered very calmly: Don't cry, girl. He's not hers. His soul is still with you. We'll bring him back. But believe. She saw everything: the rival, the husband's weakness, and my feelings, as if in the palm of your hand. She performed the ritual. She said: Give it three days. And don't doubt. On the second day, he called. He spoke quietly, as if ashamed. He said that he felt like he'd woken up. That he couldn't breathe without me. On the third day, he stood on the threshold. With flowers. With eyes full of remorse. He said: Forgive me. I don't know what came over me. I want to go home. We are together again. But now every evening I pray and thank Mother Raisa. For hearing me. For protecting my family. This is not just help. This is a miracle. If you're in despair and don't know where to turn, go to her. Mother Raisa is a light in the darkest darkness. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your help! Her number is +38099-292-71-82 on Viber.
