Ambulatory Health Care Services

Enhanced Care Management (ECM) is a program within a far-reaching, multiyear plan to transform California's Medi-Cal system, known as California Advancing and Innovating Medi-Cal (CalAIM). Led by California's Department of Health Care Services, the goal of CalAIM is to help integrate Medi-Cal more seamlessly with other social services and help improve outcomes for the millions of Californians covered by Medi-Cal, especially those with the most complex needs. Customers enrolled in the ECM program receive comprehensive care management from a single System Navigator who coordinates all their health and health-related care, including physical, mental, and dental care, and social services. ECM makes it easier for customers to get the right care at the right time in the right setting and receive comprehensive care that goes beyond the doctor's office or hospital. Come join our team, partnering with managed care health plans, and change the landscape of Behavioral Health and integrated care in our state!
