## Public health infrastructure

[edit]

Further information: Healthcare in New York (state)

New York State relies on a county-based system for delivery of public health services.[1] The Department of Health promotes the prevention and control of disease, environmental health, healthy lifestyles, and emergency preparedness and response; supervises local health boards; oversees reporting and vital records; conducts surveillance of hospitals; does research at the Wadsworth Center; and administers several other health insurance programs and institutions.[1] 58 local health departments offer core services including assessing community health, disease control and prevention, family health, and health education; 37 localities provide environmental health services, while the other 21 rely on the state's Department of Health.[1]

At the local level, public health workers are found not only in local health agencies but also in private and nonprofit organizations concerned with the public's health.[2] The most common professional disciplines are physicians, nurses, environmental specialists, laboratorians, health educators, disease investigators, outreach workers, and managers, as well as other allied health professions.[2] Nurses represented 22% of the localities' workforce (and 42% of full-time equivalent workers in rural localities), scientific/investigative staff represented 22%–27% of the workforce, support staff represented 28%, education/outreach staff represented 10%, and physicians represented 1%.[1] In 2018 the Department of Health had over 3300 personnel in its central office, three regional offices, three field offices and nine district health offices, and an additional 1400 personnel in its five healthcare institutions.[3]

## Professional licensing

[edit]

The Health Department's State Board for Professional Medical Conduct and Office of Professional Medical Conduct are responsible for investigating and adjudicating complaints against physicians, physician assistants, and specialist assistants.[4][5] The Education Department's State Board for Medicine advises on licensing, practice standards, and professional conduct for physicians and physician assistants.[6] The Education Department's State Board for Nursing advises on licensing, professional practice, education standards, and conduct for licensed practical nurses, registered professional nurses, nurse practitioners, and clinical nurse specialists.[7]

## Certificate of need

[edit]

The certificate of need (CON) process is a regulatory mechanism used to oversee the establishment, construction, renovation, and major equipment acquisition of healthcare facilities.[8][9] The CON process aims to control health care costs and prevent duplicative services by ensuring new investments meet a community need.[10][11] The process is governed by Article 28 of the Public Health Law and administered by the department with guidance and approval from its Public Health and Health Planning Council (PHHPC).

New York's CON requirements are among the most extensive in the nation, covering all six major categories of health services: hospital beds, non-hospital beds, medical equipment, new facilities, new services, and even emergency medical transport, and New York is unique in applying CON laws to dentists' offices.[12]

## Medical assistance

[edit]

The Department, through the NY State of Health marketplace, manages eligibility and enrollment for Medicaid applicants.[13][14][15] New York has transitioned to Medicaid managed care away from the fee-for-service model, and most beneficiaries enroll in "mainstream" Medicaid managed care plans.[16][17][18] The Medicaid behavioral health system has also transitioned to Medicaid managed care.[19]

To help offset financial losses from serving Medicaid and uninsured patients, disproportionate share hospital (DSH) payments are distributed through multiple mechanisms, including the Health Care Reform Act (HCRA)-funded General Hospital Indigent Care Pool for both public and voluntary hospitals, the High Need Indigent Care Adjustment Pool for rural hospitals, DSH intergovernmental transfers for public hospitals, and DSH payments to Institutes for Mental Disease (IMDs).[20][21][22][23]

State directed payments (SDPs) are state-defined value-based payment mandates requiring managed care plans to deliver higher reimbursements to providers like safety net hospitals (Directed Payment Template programs), financed via increased capitation rates supported by general funds, HCRA provider taxes, and intergovernmental transfers.[24][25][26][27]

## Statewide Health Information Network

[edit]

The Statewide Health Information Network for New York (SHIN-NY, pronounced "shiny") is a health information exchange that allows healthcare providers to access and share patient data, managed by the nonprofit New York eHealth Collaborative. There are several regional health information organizations such as Hixny.

## History

[edit]

The 1858 Staten Island Quarantine War was a series of attacks on the New York Marine Hospital in Staten Island

The earliest New York state laws regarding public health were quarantine laws for the port of New York, first passed by the New York General Assembly in 1758.[28][29] The 1793 Philadelphia yellow fever epidemic precipitated the 1799–1800 creation of the New York Marine Hospital, and in 1801 its resident physician and the health officers of the port were constituted as the New York City board of health.[30][31][32] The 1826–1837 cholera pandemic precipitated further legislation. In 1847 a law mandated civil registration of vital events (births, marriages, and deaths). In 1866, the state legislature passed the Metropolitan Health Law and established the NYC Metropolitan Board of Health, and in 1870 the legislature replaced it with the NYC Department of Health.[33][34]

The State Board of Health was created 18 May 1880 by the 103rd Legislature.[35] The 1881–1896 cholera pandemic further caused an expansion of its powers to compel reporting and to perform the duties of local boards of health.[36] The State Department of Health and its commissioner were created by an act of 19 February 1901 of the 124th Legislature, superseding the board.[37]

The certificate of need (CON) requirement was created by New York in 1964.[38][10][39]

The state implemented Medicaid in 1966 and designated the state Department of Social Services as the "single state agency" but required it to contract with the Health Department.[40][41] The Social Services Department and local social districts were responsible for eligibility determinations and paying claims, while the Health Department and local health districts were responsible for settings standards (including fees schedules) and supervising and surveilling providers.[41] In 2012, the Health Department started assuming administrative responsibilities for Medicaid from the counties.[13][42][43][14]

By 1970 the state began to regulate health insurance reimbursement rates, in 1983 began all-payer rate setting, and by 1986-1988 had moved to a case-based system.[44][45][46] In 1996 these were replaced by the current Health Care Reform Act (HCRA), allowing negotiated reimbursement rates and establishing tax funding for public goods like graduate medical education, charity care, and public health.[47][48][49] The Health Care Reform Act of 2000 (HCRA 2000) was a major extension and modification that made significant changes to how New York State funded hospitals, subsidized care for the uninsured, and managed health insurance programs.[50][51]
