Atención médica y seguro
Médico, medicamentos y seguro médico en Nueva York, si tiene poco dinero o no tiene estatus.
Esta es información general, no asesoría legal: en QARAVAN no hay abogados. QARAVAN no ayuda a entrar a EE. UU. y no puede tramitar visas, invitaciones, patrocinios ni evacuaciones. Para su caso, consulte a un abogado de inmigración con licencia o a un representante acreditado por el Departamento de Justicia de EE. UU.
Información a noviembre de 2026. Las reglas del seguro médico cambian en 2026 y 2027.
QARAVAN no presta servicios médicos ni legales. Las decisiones sobre su caso las toman los médicos, las clínicas y las agencias del gobierno.
Lo esencial
- Si su vida está en peligro, llame al 911 o vaya a una sala de emergencias (emergency room, ER): el hospital está obligado a ayudarle sin importar su seguro ni su estatus.
- Pensamientos de suicidio: llame o envíe un mensaje de texto al 988. Posible exposición al VIH: el medicamento PEP debe empezarse en un plazo de 72 horas; llame al 844-373-7692 o vaya a una ER.
- Sin seguro médico: NYC Care le da un médico fijo en los hospitales y clínicas de la ciudad; se paga según los ingresos, desde $0, y no se anota su estatus. Puede inscribirse en cualquier hospital o clínica de NYC Health + Hospitals.
