The Medicaid 1115 Waiver is a special program approved by New York State and the federal government that lets certain health and community organizations provide extra help to Medicaid members.
It allows services that go beyond regular medical care—like improving home safety, air quality, and other living conditions that affect health.
Under this waiver, NYS Easy Air (an approved Enhanced Housing / Environmental Remediation provider) can offer free home upgrades to qualifying households.
These upgrades may include things like:
- HEPA air purifiers and vacuums
- Dehumidifiers and humidifiers
- Mold and pest remediation
- Safer flooring, grab bars, and ramps
- Other home improvements that support healthy breathing and daily living
The goal of the Medicaid 1115 Waiver is simple:
Keep families healthy by improving the places where they live.
This program focuses on people with asthma, allergies, mobility needs, or other conditions made worse by unsafe or unhealthy home environments.
If you or someone in your family has Medicaid, you may qualify for these free services.
To learn more or check your eligibility, call 718-372-3000 or email info@nyseasyair.com
Free products & services are pending program approval. Restrictions apply.
