What we do
A Care Coordination Agency is the state-listed organization that does the ALW paperwork and care planning with you. Beta's ALW team helps you work out whether ALW may fit and asks the state to add you to the waitlist. We keep your file ready. When an opening is released, we do the nurse assessment and the care plan, and we help you compare homes that take ALW. After you move, we check in every month. Beta does not charge you for care coordination. Medi-Cal pays Beta directly.
Who decides what
DHCS decides whether you are eligible, after the nurse assessment, and when an opening is released. Each home decides its own admissions and sets its room-and-board terms. You choose your agency and your home. Beta cannot change any of those decisions, predict the wait or move anyone up the list. We tell you when each decision happens.
Check us
Five ways to verify Beta before you call.
Beta is listed by DHCS as a participating Care Coordination Agency under the name Beta Hospice Care. That name is the organization's original line of work, hospice and palliative care, which runs separately from ALW care coordination: who Beta is, and how hospice and ALW fit together. You may choose any Care Coordination Agency on that list and any participating home. If you are unhappy with Beta's care coordination, you can email DHCS at ALWGrievances@dhcs.ca.gov.
