Overview

Mission

Amida care is a private, nonprofit community health plan that specializes in providing comprehensive health coverage and coordinated care to New York city medicaid members with chronic conditions, including HIV/AIDS and behavioral health disorders.

What it reported doing in 2024

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 98% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown and liabilities are high compared with assets.
