Important Changes for Essential Plan 200-250 Members

You need to choose coverage by June 15, 2026, to have new health insurance July 1, 2026.

You have choices available, and we’re here to ensure you keep getting the care you need. Fidelis Care offers a variety of quality, affordable plans for people of all ages and incomes, including our Ambetter from Fidelis Care Qualified Health Plans on the Marketplace.

Ambetter from Fidelis Care Qualified Health Plans are Fidelis Care’s quality, affordable Marketplace plans offered through NY State of Health. These plans meet Affordable Care Act (ACA) requirements, provide essential health benefits, and cover pre-existing conditions.

Our Ambetter plans have some of the lowest costs in New York State.

Ambetter plans include:

• Emergency Care
• Hospitalization
• Laboratory Services
• Maternity & Newborn Care
• Outpatient or Ambulatory Care
• Prescription Drugs
• Preventive & Wellness Care

Plus, you get extra benefits like 24/7 Telemedicine Program with $0 Copay, Wellness Rewards, Ambetter Perks, and Fitness Reimbursement!

Costs can vary depending on the coverage you qualify for next. We can help review your options or you can work directly with NY State of Health. To ensure you are getting the right coverage options, make sure your NY State of Health information is up to date.

Your Essential Plan 200-250 coverage lasts until June 30, 2026. Continue to go to your doctor appointments and get your medications from your in-network pharmacy. Nothing about your insurance changes until July 1, 2026.

You could be eligible for a low-cost option like Medicaid Managed Care or a different Essential Plan based on your pregnancy or giving birth. If NY State of Health is not aware of your pregnancy, we recommend you contact them at 1-855-355-5777 (TTY: 1-800-662-1220).

Right now, you can continue to see the same doctors you have been seeing. Once your coverage ends on June 30, 2026, your provider network may be different depending on the coverage you move to. Most of our healthcare providers will accept our Essential Plan, Medicaid, and Ambetter from Fidelis Care Qualified Health Plan members. To check:

• Use our online Find a Doctor tool
• Call 1-888-FIDELIS (1-888-343-3547); TTY: 711

Our goal is to help you stay connected to care.

Due to federal changes, you may no longer be eligible for Essential Plan programs. Depending on your income or on whether you are pregnant, you may be eligible for Medicaid.
