De Blasio said that the implementation of the program would cost $ 100 million and would allow all residents, including illegal immigrants, to see a doctor if necessary.
“This has never happened in this country. We are going to guarantee medical care for New Yorkers who need it, ”said De Blasio.
He also said that in his opinion, the program should pay off, since fewer residents will rely on expensive visits to emergency departments.
“We are already paying an exorbitant amount for improper medical care and are waiting for people to get sick,” said de Blasio.
He said that this program will be a real revolution in the field of medical care. According to him, at the moment, many people turn to emergency departments, which are the supplier of medical services "by default". De Blasio stressed that this is the worst kind of medical care.
In addition to primary care, NYC Care will include maternity care, mental health care, and other medical services.
