Care Coordination in Lebanon County, PA

ECCM helps Lebanon County families and adults find the right services, apply for funding, and keep their plan working. We're a conflict-free care coordination agency, which means we don't provide therapy or treatment ourselves. Our job is to be on your side while you work with the providers who do.

In Lebanon County, ECCM coordinates three programs:

  • Intellectual Disabilities Supports Coordination for children and adults with an intellectual disability
  • Autism Supports Coordination for autistic children and adults who qualify for developmental programs
  • Community HealthChoices (CHC) Service Coordination for adults 21 and older who need long-term services and supports

Serving all of Lebanon County, including the city of Lebanon, Annville, Palmyra, Myerstown, Cleona, Jonestown, Fredericksburg, Schaefferstown, Richland, Campbelltown, Mount Gretna, and the surrounding townships.

  • Monitor services and progress toward your goals
  • Help keep you healthy and safe

Autism Supports Coordination

For autistic individuals who qualify for services through Pennsylvania's Office of Developmental Programs. Your supports coordinator helps you plan, connects you with providers, coordinates funding, and checks in to make sure services are working.

Community HealthChoices Service Coordination

Community HealthChoices is Pennsylvania's Medicaid managed care program for adults who receive both Medicare and Medicaid, or who need long-term services and supports. That includes help at home with bathing, dressing, meal prep, and medication.

How Getting Started Works

You don't need to have everything figured out before you call. That's what we're here for.

  1. Call intake

    Call 717-922-8583, email expert@eccm.org, or fill out our contact form.
  2. Check eligibility

    Our intake team explains your options and helps you gather the documents you'll need.
  3. Meet your coordinator

    Once you're eligible, your coordinator builds a personalized plan and connects you to services.
  4. Ongoing support

    We check in regularly and adjust the plan as your needs and goals change.
New to intellectual disability or autism services? In Pennsylvania, eligibility for these programs is determined through your county. In Lebanon County, that's the Mental Health/Intellectual Disability/Early Intervention (MH/ID/EI) Program. Call 717-274-3415 and ask for the ID intake worker. Once you're found eligible, you get to choose your supports coordination organization, and you can choose ECCM. We're happy to help you through that first step too.
