Last updated October 7, 2026
What we never do
- Charge any company per referral, lead, call or new client.
- Sell your information, or share it with a company you did not choose.
- Let payment change the order of a list or who appears on it.
- Recommend one company over another.
- Accept payment to change what our guides say.
How we earn money
- Paid listings. A listed company can pay a flat monthly fee, the same for every company in its category, to add photos and a longer description. Paid listings are marked “Paid listing” and stay in the same random order as free listings.
- Sponsored boxes. A company can pay a flat monthly fee for a box marked “Sponsored”, shown apart from any list.
- Advertising. Ads are marked “Advertisement” and are never targeted using your health or Medicaid information.
- Guide sponsorships. A sponsor may be thanked at the end of a guide. Sponsors never write, review or change our guides.
Every company we list can be contacted through cdpap.nyc for free. Paying does not give a company faster or special access to families.
Who can advertise
- Companies that are licensed or contracted for the services they offer, and in good standing.
- Companies that are not excluded from Medicaid or Medicare.
- Companies that agree not to offer gifts, cash or bonuses to families or caregivers for choosing them.
