Community Supports are extra services that Blue Shield Promise offers to eligible Medi-Cal members. They are not benefits. These services provide support to members beyond Long Term Care Support Services (LTSS). They enhance and support members’ care. Services will vary based on a member’s needs and on Blue Shield Promise Health Plan’s rules. Prior authorization is required.
Enhanced Care Management (ECM) is a Medi-Cal care management benefit. ECM offers extra services to members with complex needs that make it difficult to improve their health. This could include health conditions or challenges such as not having a place to live.
Doulas are birth workers who provide help to birthing persons through pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. They can also help in the event of miscarriage, stillbirth, or abortion. Doula services are in addition to medical care from your obstetrician or midwife.
