Our Services
Health Insurance Navigation
NMIC’s Healthcare Navigators assist New Yorkers in learning about, applying for, comparing, enrolling in, and renewing health insurance coverage.
In partnership with NewYork-Presbyterian hospital, we encourage better health and well-being of community members by connecting clients with health workers who provide full case –management services.
We promote healthy practices and access to healthcare as well as raise awareness of mental health issues and available services through education initiatives aimed at staff and clients.
