Accompanying our Uninsured Community from ER to Medical Home

Home / Projects / Accompanying our Uninsured Community from ER to Medical Home

This project will transform public emergency departments in Los Angeles County into a Center of Excellence for Uninsured with twin interventions of health insurance navigation and services. Through a medical-legal partnership, the project will serve both patients who are uninsured with hospital presumptive eligibility for Medi-Cal and patients who are “residually uninsured” due to socially complex, mis-categorized or undocumented status.
