New York is a 1634 state, so people who get SSI are usually enrolled in Medicaid based on the Social Security decision.

Adults with disabilities who do not get SSI can apply under the aged, blind and disabled rules at the local Department of Social Services, including a spend down option if income is above the limit.

For children: None (no TEFRA option; the Children's Waiver can cover children who need an institutional level of care).
