Thank you for your interest in becoming a provider with New York State’s Early Intervention Program (EIP). The NYS EIP is part of the national Early Intervention Program for infants and toddlers with disabilities and their families. First created by Congress in 1986 under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), the EIP is administered by the New York State Department of Health through the Bureau of Early Intervention (BEI). In New York State, the EIP is established in Article 25 of the Public Health Law and has been in effect since July 1, 1993.

To maintain NYS EIP’s high standards of quality and improve efficiencies for providers, we have implemented an updated provider enrollment and management system. Potential providers will complete a Pre-Application Screening Tool (PAST) which will help determine their eligibility to complete the full Provider Application Tool (PAT).
