CalAIM

Right care, right place, right time.

DHCS developed California Advancing and Innovating Medi-Cal (CalAIM), a broad-based delivery system and program and payment reform initiative that leverages Medicaid to address the complex challenges facing California's most vulnerable residents, such as people experiencing homelessness, those needing behavioral health care access, children with complex medical conditions, people with justice involvement and significant clinical needs, and the aging population.
