Complex Care Management Program

Complex Care Management Program: The Complex Care Management program is a community facing program that works with our highest risk Medicaid patients to address medical, social and mental health needs.

Autism Program

The BMC Autism Program assists and empowers individuals and families affected by Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and related disabilities through direct patient support, provider education, and community-based outreach. We serve nearly 1200 families per year through this work, with our numbers steadily growing.  Our patient population is unique in that we serve the highest percentage of families on MassHealth insurance-majorities of our families face significant socioeconomic barriers and struggle to make ends meet. This reality becomes especially clear around the holidays and is exacerbated by the Covid-19 pandemic, which has disproportionately affected our patients and access to basic needs. Many of our families struggle to afford gifts for their children as they are trying to also get the family’s basic needs met. 

And for our patients with autism, having new toys, learning games and warm clothes can mean new skill development, comfort, and a way for parents to engage with their children. Our program is 100% philanthropy funded, which is why we rely on generous donors to help us with this special project.

The Good Grief Program

The Good Grief program provides counseling and other supportive services to children and their families after they have experienced a significant loss, like the death of a loved one, divorce, or separation from an important person due to incarceration. Families connect to the program to gain additional support as they navigate their grieving process. Our program works to provide services that will help families learn about grief, uncover new skills to cope with their loss, and garner their intrinsic strengths to integrate their loss into their life in a meaningful and healthy way.

This year has been a particularly challenging year for so many, including the many families who have reached out to our program for support due to the compounded losses they have experienced during the pandemic. Our program and team members have been working tirelessly to support these families and offer hope and optimism during these difficult times.
