Martin Luther King Jr Community Medical Foundation

Volume patient clinic visits were 46,449 including 7,813 covid19 vaccination visits. Mlkcmf collaborated this past year in an innovative design for the treatment of mental health, physical health and substance abuse disorders. The integrated design for behavioral health begins with an assessment at the first point of patient contact establishing potential links between a chronic Medical condition and a behavioral health concern. This allows for an early intervention of a behavioral health team following the patient from inpatient care to appropriate long-term support care and resources in an outpatient setting. The total behavioral healths visits were 3,026.

Mlkcmf established the lactation clnic, which supports improved maternal and infant health in south los angeles by increasing the percentage of women in the service area who exclusively breastfeed their infant until they reach six months of age.

Mlkcmf established the enhanced care management program, which is a statewide medi-caMedicalal benefit. The goal of this program is to provide whole person approach to care that addresses both clinical and non-clinical needs of high-need medi-caMedicalal beneficiaries. Beneficiaries will have a single lead care manager who will coordinate care and services among the physical, behavioral, dental, developmental, and social services delivery sytems, making it easier for them to get the right care at the right time.
