Welcome to Enhanced Care Management (ECM) at Alzheimer’s Los Angeles
A Free Medi-Cal Program for Families Facing Memory Loss
Taking care of someone with memory problems can be hard, but you don’t have to do it alone. With Enhanced Care Management (ECM), a free Medi-Cal program, you’ll get the personalized support you need. ECM helps people living with memory loss stay safe and comfortable at home by working with family/friend caregivers to provide care navigation and support.
What ECM does for you:


This program may be a fit if the person you care for:
Has memory problems or dementia (they don’t need a diagnosis)
Needs help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, or remembering to take medicine
They have Medi-Cal with HealthNet or LA Care and live at home in Los Angeles County
You or another caregiver can be involved in the program on an on-going basis
