Effective immediately, informational brochures on male and female sterilization will now be available for download and print, in English and Spanish, on the DHCS Web site. These brochures will no longer be available for order in hard copy format. Providers receiving consent for sterilization procedures must provide Medi-Cal beneficiaries with printed copies of the sterilization booklets. View printing instructions here.
