What would you like to know?

New Yorkers enrolled in Medicaid or an eligible managed care plan who live in Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan, or the Bronx, and who have a diet related health need or trouble affording healthy food. Final eligibility is confirmed by your plan during a free screening call.

Nothing, if you qualify. Under New York State's Medicaid 1115 waiver, eligible members receive nutrition analysis, dietitian counseling, medically tailored meals, and produce prescriptions at no cost. There is no copay, no deductible, and no bill.

Call us anyway at (929) 460-0610. We will check whether you qualify through another plan, help you apply for Medicaid or SNAP if you are eligible, and point you to community food programs in the meantime.

No. You can request services yourself. If your doctor does refer you, we send the dietitian's assessment summary back to their office so your care stays connected.

A registered dietitian reviews what you actually eat over about three days and converts it into numbers: calories, protein, carbohydrate, fat, sodium, added sugar, fiber, and a panel of more than 40 vitamins and minerals. You get the results in writing, in plain language.

About 45 minutes. Most members receive their written report and a review appointment within one week.

A rough sense of what you ate over the last three days, any recent lab results if you have them, and a list of your medications and supplements. If you do not have labs, we work with what you have.

No. Your dietitian walks you through it in conversation, using household measures like cups, spoons, and hand sizes. Nothing is weighed and nothing is logged in an app unless you want to.

Yes, and we encourage it. The report is yours to keep. With your consent we can also send it directly to your provider.

Diabetes and prediabetes, high blood pressure and heart disease, kidney disease and dialysis, pregnancy and postpartum nutrition, cancer care, digestive conditions, and unintended weight loss or gain.

Both. You can be seen at our Brooklyn office, in your home, by phone, or by video, whichever gets you an appointment soonest.

No. Our dietitians adjust your recipes rather than replacing them. We work regularly with halal, kosher, Chinese, South Asian, Caribbean, and Latin cooking.

It depends on what your analysis finds and what your plan covers. Most members start with an initial visit and a follow up, then continue as often as the plan is helping.

Your dietitian writes a meal plan against your diagnosis and lab values, and meals matched to that plan are delivered to your home ready to eat. No cooking or shopping is required.

Eligible members may receive up to three meals a day for up to six months, depending on what the State and your plan approve. Your dietitian will confirm your specific amount.

Yes. Halal, kosher, vegetarian, and culturally specific menus are available, alongside renal, diabetic, and low sodium options.

A written prescription from your dietitian for a set amount of fruit and vegetables, redeemed as a delivered grocery box or at a partner site, the same way a medication prescription works.

Most members hear back within one business day, and deliveries typically begin one to two weeks after screening and the dietitian visit are complete.

Use the guided form at /provider-referrals. It takes about four minutes and covers the referrer, the member, the services requested, and consent.

We review every referral within one business day and reach out to the member in English, Chinese, or Bengali, with interpreters available for other languages.

Yes. Referrals are closed loop. You receive confirmation of outreach, enrollment status, and the dietitian's assessment summary for your records.
