Community Supports
Through the CalAIM initiative, Medi-Cal beneficiaries are being connected to Community Supports to meet their social needs, including medically supportive foods or housing supports.
Community Supports are new services provided by Medi-Cal Managed Care Plans as cost effective alternatives to traditional medical services or settings. Community Supports are designed to address social drivers of health (factors in people’s lives that influence their health).
All Medi-Cal Managed Care Plans are encouraged to offer as many of the 14 pre-approved Community Supports as possible and make them available to eligible Medi-Cal members regardless of whether they qualify for Enhanced Care Management services.
