A Medicaid HMO is a state's way of administering the federal Medicaid program by limiting reimbursements to a "prenegotiated" schedule. HMO = managed care (a physician responsible for directing/coordinating a patient's medical care).

Don't know about a list of HMOs in New York City, but it won't be huge. Try looking at the NY State Superintendent of Insurance website to see if you find anything.
