We held our first webinar on Nov 1, 2024. The webinar focused on CalAiM, a multi year plan to improve California's Medi-Cal program by making it more equitable, coordinated, and person-centered. A key component is the Enhanced Care Management (ECM), a community-based care management for members with complex needs and Community Supports, an array of 14 services addressing needs like housing, meals, and personal care. The webinar provided an overview of CalAim, the aspects of the program that are related to health economics, the implications for health equity, and the potential role for public health agencies to participate in this endeavor. The speakers included Dr. Van Do Reynoso, the Chief Customer Experience Officer, Chief Health Equity Officer for CenCal HEALTH and the Blanca Zuniga, Associate Director, Care Management for CenCal HEALTH. Joining Dr. Do Reynoso and Ms. Zuniga were a group of health economists who are working in public health agencies from around the state.
