monthly premium. This expansion aligns with Fidelis Care's mission to ensure that everyone
across New York State has access
to high-quality, affordable health insurance.
The Essential Plan is designed to help individuals and families
who fall into particular income categories, providing them with
essential health benefits, including a $0 monthly premium, no deductible, low out of
pocket costs, dental and vision coverage with $0 copay, and free preventive care. In addition
to those benefits, the Essential Plan Offered by Fidelis Care includes a fitness reimbursement
program, a variety of healthcare resources, and access to the
plan's statewide network of high-quality providers.
Fidelis Care is committed to
making the enrollment process as smooth as possible. Trained and
knowledgeable representatives are available to assist and provide
