NHTD Waiver Program

The Nursing Home Transition and Diversion (NHTD) Medicaid Waiver Program was developed by the New York State Department of Health to offer community-based services to individuals who are medically eligible for nursing home care, but prefer to live in their homes or another community setting.

About the Program

The program aims to prevent unnecessary institutionalization and to support successful transitions from nursing facilities to independent living environments.

Testimonials

My father was in a nursing facility after a long hospital stay, and we didn’t think home care was an option—until someone told us about the NHTD program. All Health walked us through every step, helped us apply, and made sure everything was in place. Now he’s home, comfortable, and getting the care he needs.

Brooklyn, NY

Living in a nursing home made me feel like I had lost control of my life. Thanks to the NHTD program and All Health’s care team, I was able to transition back into my own apartment with support. Their service coordinator was patient, knowledgeable, and made sure I felt safe. I’m living on my terms again.
