The ACEs Aware and CalAIM partnership is reshaping Medi-Cal with strategies like integrating care management, using trauma-informed approaches, and streamlining referrals for whole-person care. Clinics report lower provider stress, stronger patient engagement, and early ACEs intervention—advancing resilience and health equity statewide.
In California, we’re transforming SYSTEMS to get better outcomes for individuals who have experienced ACEs and may be at risk of having a toxic stress physiology. Through partnership between ACEs Aware and the CalAIM initiative, primary care and community partners are reshaping Medi-Cal services to meet the needs of our most vulnerable communities. @RANDcorporation’s new report highlights key strategies for success like integrating Enhanced Care Management and Community Health Worker benefits directly into clinic workflows, using trauma-informed approaches, and creating in-house referral systems to ensure accessible, whole-person care. Clinics are now reporting lower provider stress, stronger patient engagement, and a workforce equipped to identify ACEs early and prevent or mitigate toxic stress biology! By partnering primary care with community resources, we’re building resilience and advancing health equity for Californians in need.

I'm so grateful to UCSF for picking up and reminding us all that colorectal cancer screening saves lives -- and that organized programs like FluFIT, which leverages the time of annual flu shots as an opportunity to offer colorectal cancer screening, have helped hundreds of thousands of people to get screened and treated at a time when prevention and cure are possible. As a result of more widespread screening, mortality from colorectal cancer in the USA has been nearly cut in half over the past 30 years. It's been a major public health success story. And yet, there is more work to be done, especially as colorectal cancer is beginning to show up with more frequency among people in their 40's, and as access to colorectal cancer screening and treatment in many countries remains limited or non-existent.
More than 15 years ago, University of California, San Francisco's Michael Potter worked with San Francisco community health clinics to develop a model that paired #colorectalcancer screening with something about half of us do annually anyway: get a #flushot. Today, CHCs in all 50 states have used FLU-FIT to save lives. “I don't think that work would have happened if I were not a practicing #familydoctor in Zuckerberg San Francisco General Hospital and Trauma Center's Family Health Center, where we had a team of people with clinical experience willing to help us understand how to overcome the many challenges of implementing this program with a multilingual and underinsured population” said Dr. Potter, who is a UCSF Family & Community Medicine Professor and Director of the SF Bay Area Collaborative Research Network. He is also Associate Director for Practice-Based Research in UCSF Clinical & Translational Science Institute Community Engagement Program and a member of the UCSF Helen Diller Family Comprehensive Cancer Center Cancer Control Network. SFBayCRN is UCSF's primary healthcare practice based research network, with participation from the UCSF Schools of Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, and Dentistry. SFBayCRN includes a network of over 1,000 clinicians working in over 100 clinical sites in the nine Bay Area counties.
