GuildNet: GuildNet Inc. operated a Medicaid Managed Long-Term care health plan to Medicaid beneficiaries residing in New York City who require health care and community-based services. During 2018, GuildNet requested and received approval from the New York State Department of Health to cease providing partially capitated services in all counties of New York. Effective December 31, 2018 those members were transferred to other managed long-term care plans. GuildNet is in the wind-down process and the corporation will remain open until the wind-down is completed.

Examples included: academic and communication skills training to assess academic potential, use adaptive aids, and prepare for tests such as high school equivalency tests and college preparatory exams. Training in adaptive technology to help clients enter or stay in school or the job market, including technologies that enlarge written material, software that reads what is on a computer screen, and other devices that compensate for vision loss.
