Alameda County Health Care Services Agency (HCSA) was awarded more than $140 million by the California Department of Health Care Services, in 2016, for Alameda County (AC) Care Connect, an ambitious and innovative program that focuses on people experiencing homelessness and people with complex physical, mental, and social conditions who need care coordination across multiple systems, such as emergency services, hospitalizations, and law enforcement to obtain good treatment outcomes. This pilot program focuses on transforming the infrastructure of care, and will organize health care providers, housing, behavioral health, probation, and other systems to work together to better coordinate care; help patients obtain housing; and, improve communications and coordination between providers by creating a “community health record.” An estimated 20,000 people will be touched by the program over five years.


MISSION

AC Care Connect is committed to strengthening systems of care that work together to deliver consumer-centered care and supporting high-need individuals (the people of Alameda County who face highly complex physical, behavioral, and social challenges) to achieve optimal independence and health.
