Health Net – Innovations in ADRD Caregiver Support Programs

Resources For Integrated Care

In this podcast, Linda Wade-Bickel, the Senior Director of Population Health & Clinical Operations at Health Net; Ed Mariscal, the Director of Public Programs and Long-Term Services & Supports at Health Net; and Anita Chacon Terry, a Manager of Care Management at Health Net, discuss the benefits of care manager education and the impact of home and community-based service referrals on member outcomes. These podcasts, excerpted from a 2022 webinar, explore innovative ways that health equity and caregiver support are addressed across Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD) programs supporting dually eligible people living with ADRD. The event speakers review various strategies and lessons learned from existing programs for ensuring caregivers have the supports they need to care for a person living with ADRD, and speakers also describe strategies for health plans to consider supporting providers in their work with caregivers.
