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

I came to Daria simply out of curiosity. There was no particular problem, but I wanted to understand: what awaits me, where everything is going. She immediately laid out the cards and said things that seemed strange at the time. For example, that within a month a person from the past would return to my life and that I would be offered cooperation that would open a new path. I brushed it off then - I did not communicate with anyone from the past, and there were no offers. But exactly two weeks later, a former classmate with whom I had not spoken for more than 10 years wrote to me and invited me to work with her on a project. Everything coincided down to the smallest detail. It was this offer that became a starting point for me - I changed my field, began to do what I had been putting off for a long time, and felt alive. Daria does not just look at the cards - she helps you understand yourself and your paths. She speaks calmly, with respect, without intimidation. After a session with her, my soul felt lighter, a feeling of confidence appeared, which I lacked so much. Now I know exactly who to contact if I need a hint. Here is her number: +1 (646) 377-9379
My husband and I lived together for 10 years... I believed that we had a strong family, that the difficulties we had gone through together had only hardened us. But everything collapsed suddenly. He changed... became cold, distant... And then I found out about her. A mistress. Young, daring, without a shred of conscience. She called me brazenly, laughed, threw insults in my face. She was destroying my family, my soul, my life. I cried at night, prayed, did not know why all this was happening to me. The pain was so strong that it seemed I simply could not stand it. The last hope was the fortune teller Martha, whom a friend told me about. I came to her, broken, with my hands down. And she looked at me and understood everything without words. I did not have to say anything... she herself told me about our life. Calmly, with kindness, she began to work. I did a love spell on that woman, a cleansing... and most importantly, I brought my husband back to the family. He came. With tears. With remorse. He said that he was in a fog, as if under someone else's influence. Now he is nearby, holding my hand, hugging our daughter. And I... I still can't believe that this is my life again. Thank you Marfa! She saved my family! Saved me! Her number is +380931150260 Viber / WhatsApp / Telegram

She saved me when I was on the edge. Lily gave me back my man, my love, my life.
I'm writing this review with tears in my eyes, because I still can't believe it all really happened. When he left, the ground fell out from under my feet. We were together for almost three years. He was everything to me: love, friend, support. But one day, he simply fell silent, distanced himself, became a stranger. And then – disappeared. Without explanation, without goodbyes. My soul screamed in pain, I didn't eat, didn't sleep, didn't live. No one could help. Not my friends, not a psychologist, not my prayers into my pillow at night. I accidentally saw Lilia online. The reviews, like mine now, seemed too magical to be true. But then, I was ready for anything. I wrote to her. And that's where my return to life began. From the first minutes of talking with Lilia, I felt that she knew. Not just guessed – it was as if she was experiencing my pain with me. She told me about the situation as if she had been there herself. She saw that he was being negatively influenced, and that his feelings hadn't disappeared—they were just blocked. Lilia performed a deep energy cleansing and said she would work with me and his energy field. I'll be honest: I was afraid, I doubted, I even thought about giving up. But I continued to follow her instructions. And 12 days later, he wrote. At first, he was reserved. Then he admitted that all this time he had felt something pulling him back. That I was constantly in his thoughts. And a week later, he was standing at my door. With the words: "You couldn't get out of my head. I'm sorry. I want everything back." I sobbed. I hugged him and couldn't believe it wasn't a dream. If it weren't for Lilia, this miracle wouldn't have happened. I know for sure: her gift is real. Her energy, her strength, her words—they are real. She didn't just help me bring back my loved one; she pulled me out of the abyss in which I was perishing. Now we're back together. We're closer than we were before the breakup. He's different. I'm different. Stronger. More confident. More grateful. If you're in pain right now, like I was, don't stay silent, contact Lilia. Her help isn't just rituals. It's light, warmth, and power that truly change lives. Her contact information: +380638055486 (WhatsApp, Viber), +19297133433 (regular call).
