The Data Sharing Authorization Guidance (DSAG) “Medi-Cal Housing Support Services” and “Reentry Initiative” Toolkits are designed to complement the California Advancing and Innovating Medi-Cal (CalAIM) Data Sharing Authorization Guidance (December 2025) by illustrating real world scenarios that will help Medi-Cal Partners navigate data privacy and data sharing laws and regulations related to CalAIM.

The goals of these Toolkits are to:

• Explain when, why, and under what circumstances consent may be needed to share sensitive health and social service information (HSSI); and
• Provide clarification on the laws pertaining to the sharing of sensitive HSSI.

 An overview of both toolkits and the toolkits themselves can be found here:

• DSAG Guidance Toolkits – Overview
• DSAG Medi-Cal Housing Support Services Toolkit
• DSAG Reentry Initiative Toolkit
