What are Enhanced Care Management (ECM) Services?

ECM is a Medi-Cal benefit that provides extra care management services to members with highly complex needs. This new benefit can help you get the care you need to stay healthy, and can manage the care you get from different doctors and others involved in your care.

You will have your own care team, through your ECM provider including a care manager.

Who Can Get ECM Services?

  • Children and youth experiencing homelessness
  • Children at risk for hospitalization or visits to the emergency department
  • Children and youth with serious mental health and/or substance use needs
  • Children and youth involved in Child Welfare
  • Children and Youth Transitioning from a Correctional Facility
  • Children and youth enrolled in CCS or CCS WCM
