What Enki Health Services, Inc. does

Enki Health Services, Inc. is a California-based non-profit behavioral health organization that has provided multicultural and multilingual mental health services throughout Los Angeles County since 1978. Founded by Dr. Albert Urmer (1929-2021) and his wife Diane Urmer, the organization operates as a private sector partner of the Los Angeles County Department of Mental Health, delivering services funded through Short-Doyle and Medi-Cal programs. Enki serves adults diagnosed with severe and chronic mental illness and children and adolescents diagnosed with severe emotional disturbance (SED), primarily serving low-income Medi-Cal beneficiaries across underserved communities in East Los Angeles, San Gabriel Valley, and Pico Union.

The organization's service portfolio includes Adult Services (outpatient therapy, medication management, case management, group therapy), Child and Family Services (birth-5 early intervention, Enhanced Specialized Foster Care, Triple P parenting programs), School Linked Services (prevention and early intervention at 160+ partner schools), and Intensive Services/Full Service Partnerships (24/7 in-home crisis support for adults and children). Supporting these clinical programs is a HIPAA-compliant telehealth platform using Doxy.me video conferencing with browser-based access and in-clinic telepsych kiosks. Enki maintains nine clinic locations across LA County, supplemented by school-based and telehealth delivery channels.

Enki's business model operates on a managed services revenue structure anchored by county contracts and government reimbursement (Medi-Cal and Medi-Cal/Medicare). Fees for services are determined by client ability to pay under California Welfare and Institutions Code. The organization employs approximately 175 staff including clinical management, therapists, psychiatrists, nurse practitioners, mental health workers, and peer support staff, with a pipeline of graduate-level trainees through partnerships with seven major universities. Distribution is entirely referral-driven through LA County DMH, school districts, DCFS, and community healthcare providers, with intake via a centralized call center (866-227-1302).
