Services Provided: 

Our Enhanced Care Management (ECM) and Community Health Worker (CHW) services provide comprehensive, whole-person support for individuals with complex medical, behavioral, and social needs. Through ECM, our care teams conduct thorough assessments, develop individualized care plans, coordinate medical and behavioral health services, and support members during critical transitions such as hospital discharge or reentry into the community. Our Community Health Workers extend this support by offering health education, care navigation, advocacy, and connections to essential community resources such as housing, food, and transportation. Together, these services reduce barriers to care, strengthen community connections, and empower individuals to improve their overall health and well-being.
