New York State Department of Health

The Department, through the NY State of Health marketplace, manages eligibility and enrollment for Medicaid applicants.[11] 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.The State Department of Health and its commissioner were created by an act of 19 February 1901 of the 124th Legislature, superseding the board.[13][14] 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.[1][15][16][2] Previous legislation passed in 2010 as a result of the Affordable Care Act called on the Health Department to create and implement a plan for such a transfer.
