Beyond health. Beyond Staten Island.
Staten Island Performing Provider System (SI PPS) is a non-profit public health organization founded in 2014 under the New York State Department of Health Medicaid 1115 waiver amendment known as the Delivery System Reform Incentive Payment (DSRIP) program. Under that program, SI PPS received funding to build a network of medical, behavioral health, and social service agencies tasked with implementing projects to improve health outcomes, improve quality of care, and reduce costs for the Medicaid program. SI PPS succeeded in meeting the State’s targets for reducing avoidable hospital utilization and improving access to medical and behavioral health, among others. At the end of the program, SI PPS earned high performance funding which has been invested back into network partners who have continued to expand upon population health improvement initiatives.
In 2024, New York State received an extension of their Medicaid 1115 waiver amendment to implement a new initiative called New York Health Equity Reform. Under this waiver, SI PPS became the lead entity in Richmond County to develop a Social Care Network. The goal of the Social Care Network is to expand and enhance the capability of our network to provide health-related social needs screening for all Medicaid members, improve the coordination and delivery of social care services, and reduce health disparities.
