Enhanced Care Management is a program of Adult System of Care, one of six Divisions of County of Placer Health & Human Services.

Enhanced Care Management (ECM) offers extra services at no cost to Medi-Cal members who have complex needs and challenges that make it difficult to improve their health. This could include health conditions or challenges such as not having a place to live. To get ECM services, someone must be enrolled in a Medi-Cal managed care health plan and meet certain eligibility requirements. The ECM provider will assign a lead care manager who works with the client to help them get the health care and social services needed. The lead care manager helps the client:

• Stay engaged in their health care
• Make a plan to meet their health goals
• Connect and update doctors about the clients' needs and wishes
• Learn how to better support their health issues
• Move safely from one care setting to another
• Work with support people to help the client
• Connect the client to community supports and social services such as food, housing support, job training, childcare, and disability-related services
