DHCS 主任 Michelle Baass 的年终寄语
Thank you for helping us achieve another banner year at DHCS. We’re implementing a multi-year transformation of Medi-Cal to ensure Californians get the care they need. Every day, Californians are gaining access to new and improved services—or getting covered for the first time. We’re addressing some of the most pressing issues of our time, including homelessness and youth mental health needs. We’re building and expanding our programs to treat the whole person—both their physical and behavioral health—and addressing health-related social needs by offering Enhanced Care Management and Community Supports, such as transitions to stable housing and/or providing access to medically tailored meals.
Together, these changes represent a significant step forward in delivering a more coordinated, person-centered, and equitable health care system that works for everyone, regardless of where they live or their health needs. Although these changes will take time to fully implement, we should feel tremendously proud of what we’re doing to transform people’s lives. Your work brings us closer to realizing our purpose of a healthy California for all.

项目更新
公平与实践转型 (EPT) 学习协作
DHCS 宣布与人口健康学习中心建立新的合作伙伴关系,共同运营 EPT 学习协作项目。 EPT 提供商直接支付计划是一次性 6.5 亿美元的投资,用于初级保健实践转型计划,重点关注健康公平、人口健康和投资上游护理模式。 DHCS 将很快发布一份最佳实践清单。
人口健康学习中心将作为 EPT 提供商定向支付计划的项目办公室,与 DHCS、参与机构和 Medi-Cal 管理式医疗计划 (MCP) 密切合作。 该计划的所有实践都必须参与人口健康学习中心的活动。
The Population Health Learning Center will also be responsible for the co-design of a technical assistance (TA) strategy for practices, monitoring practices’ progress in meeting the programs’ goals, and supporting adoption of evidenced-based models. The TA strategy will include partnering with technical experts across the state and country to develop a responsive and impactful program for participating practices. The Population Health Learning Center will leverage tools and resources designed and tested through the Population Health Management Initiative, which focuses on supporting federally qualified health centers working on similar efforts.

2024 年 1 月 Medi-Cal MCP 过渡期
As part of Medi-Cal transformation, some MCPs are changing on January 1, and approximately 1.2 million members will have new health plan options and/or will need to transition to new MCPs. Changing MCPs will not affect Medi-Cal member coverage or benefits. Members transitioning to a new MCP received notices about the transition. DHCS developed several resources to support members, providers, and other stakeholders with the transition, including the Managed Care Plan Transition Member webpage with a county “lookup” tool, links to member notices sent by Medi-Cal about MCP changes, frequently asked questions, and a Contact Us page for members to learn more about health plans and provider choices. There are also transition resources for providers and MCPs and stakeholders. More information about the transition is available in the 2024 Managed Care Plan Transition Policy Guide and Medi-Cal Eligibility Division Information Letter Number I 23-54.
