Medi-Cal 管理式医疗计划 (MCP) 网络中的医院关闭协议
当 DHCS 得知 Medi-Cal MCP 网络中的一家医院关闭时,该部的工作重点是保护 Medi-Cal 会员的健康和福利。DHCS 要求 Medi-Cal MCP 采取具体步骤,确保可能受医院关闭或服务终止影响的会员能够继续获得医疗必需的承保服务。
When DHCS was notified of Madera Community Hospital’s closure, DHCS immediately began to work with CalViva Health and Anthem Blue Cross Partnership Plan to identify the impact on Medi-Cal members’ access to care. DHCS also engaged with the California Department of Public Health to transfer Medi-Cal members who required post-acute or long-term care services following hospital discharge (i.e., skilled nursing and home health care) due to the Madera Community Hospital closure.
Additionally, DHCS reached out to Madera County’s behavioral health agency about their plans to ensure continued access to services for county residents. DHCS also contacted the behavioral health agency of the surrounding counties, including Merced, Mono, Mariposa, and Fresno, to assess the impact of the closure of Madera Community Hospital on their behavioral health systems and related mitigation plans, and to ensure the provision of needed services.

Medicare/Medi-Cal 双重合格者的 Medi-Cal MCP 注册
Effective January 1, 2023, members dually eligible for Medicare and Medi-Cal across the state became eligible to be mandatorily enrolled in Medi-Cal MCPs for their Medi-Cal benefits only. As a reminder to our stakeholders, this change in Medi-Cal does not change access to Medicare providers or benefits. Additionally, Medicare providers serving dual eligible patients do not need to enroll in a Medi-Cal MCP to continue receiving reimbursement. More than 70 percent of dual eligible members statewide are already enrolled in Medi-Cal MCPs—this step transfers the remaining 30 percent into Medi-Cal MCPs.
健康与社会服务部为医疗保险提供方发布了最新的情况说明书和工具包 ,以解释参加 Medi-Cal 管理性护理的双重资格成员的提供方计费流程。本资料介绍了现有的交叉计费流程,在 CalAIM 下该流程不会改变。
对于原始(收费服务)医疗保险的患者,医疗保险管理承包商处理主要的医疗保险付款申请,然后将申请转发给 Medi-Cal MCP(或 DHCS),由 Medi-Cal 支付次要费用。对于参加联邦医疗保险优势计划 (MA) 的患者,联邦医疗保险医疗服务提供者向 MA 计划收取主要费用。二次付款程序可能取决于患者的 Medi-Cal MCP 与 MA 计划是相同还是不同。如需更多信息,请访问全州 Medi-Cal 双重合格会员管理式护理注册网页。

选定 Doula 实施工作组的成员
1 月 13 日,DHCS 通知 26 人他们被选中参加 Doula 实施工作组。参议院第 65 号法案(第 449 章,2021 年法规)要求 DHCS 审查 Medi-Cal 计划下提供的朵拉福利的实施情况。工作组预计将于 2023 年 3 月召开第一次会议,并将一直持续到 2025 年 5 月。工作组成员名单公布在奶妈网页上。1 月 1 日,Doula 服务成为 Medi-Cal 福利。
The workgroup consists of doulas, health care providers, consumer and community advocates, health plans, county representatives, and other stakeholders with experience in doula care. The workgroup will provide input on ensuring that doula services are available to Medi-Cal members who are eligible for and want doula services; minimizing barriers and delays in payments to a Medi-Cal doula or in reimbursement to Medi-Cal members for doula services received; and making recommendations for outreach efforts so that all Medi-Cal members within the eligible and other target populations are aware of the option to use doula services. Workgroup recommendations will also help inform a report to the Legislature to reduce any identified barriers.
医疗补助计划

Historical claims data and PAs will be used to review for grandfathering. New start prescriptions for members age 21 and younger within these 39 drug classes will not be subject to PA reinstatement. On December 20, 2022, a 30-day notice was posted, and weekly reinstatement updates are posted every Friday on the Medi-Cal Rx website.
