LARKSPUR, Calif., Feb. 9, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- BluePath Health today announced it has been selected as a California Providing Access and Transforming Health (PATH) Technical Assistance (TA) Marketplace vendor. BluePath was selected for its proven ability to support building data capacity and cross-sector partnerships. These service offerings will be available starting February 27, 2023.

The new TA Marketplace is available to providers, community-based organizations, Medi-Cal Tribal and Designees of Indian Health Programs, counties, and other entities implementing CalAIM, including Enhanced Care Management (ECM) and Community Supports (CS). Through the marketplace these entities will be able to access BluePath knowledge and resources to build capacity and drive effectiveness.

"BluePath Health is thrilled to be part of this revolutionary marketplace, which will help transform the way we collectively care for Californians who need it most," said Timi Leslie, president and founder of BluePath Health. "This initiative represents a giant leap forward in the ability for entities to close gaps and address barriers to care, enabling us to partner to advance equitable community health. We encourage all local entities to determine eligibility and register to benefit directly from this initiative as soon as possible."

To shop TA Marketplace services from vendors, eligible entities must submit a registration form on the PATH website. The TA Marketplace is one part of PATH's efforts to strengthen the capacity and infrastructure of on-the-ground partners to successfully participate in CalAIM ECM and CS initiatives.
