The Fidelis Care Blog

Fidelis Care announced today it will begin an extensive educational outreach and awareness campaign to more than 2 million members across all 62 counties in New York State who will need to renew their health coverage for the first time in three years.

About 12%, or 1 in 8, women in the United States will develop breast cancer during their lifetime. It is the second most common cancer among U.S. women, behind skin cancer.

In response to the polio state disaster emergency, Fidelis Care urges our unvaccinated members to get immunized to protect yourself from this serious disease.

If you are one of the Fidelis Care members who recently received a letter indicating a possible interruption in prescription coverage, please review the below information. Starting September 1, 2022, Medicaid members must use a prescriber that is enrolled with Medicaid Fee for Service. If your provider is not enrolled with Medicaid Fee for Service, the prescriptions and supplies that he/she prescribed will not be covered. Members with providers not enrolled with Medicaid Fee for Service received a letter from Fidelis Care.

On October 1, 2021, NIA Magellan, a partner of Fidelis Care, will begin managing authorizations requests for radiology services for our members.
