See if you qualify for Medicaid Meals

Medicaid Meals is a nonprofit outreach program of Vista Verde Homes, a 501(c)(3). Answer these questions and we will look for meal programs you may qualify for. It takes about 5 minutes. There is no cost, and the choice of provider is always yours.

Answer what you can — no field is required, and we will follow up if we need anything else.

About you
Do you have Medicaid?

The New York Medicaid managed care plan on your card (Healthfirst, Fidelis, MetroPlus, and other Bronx / NYC plans). Choose Other if you are not sure, or Fee-for-service if you do not have a managed care plan.
