十月 16, 2025
Voices and Vision Council 提供 Medi-Cal 會員和健康照護專業人員塑造 Medi-Cal 政策的途徑
薩克拉門托——為推動包容性政策制定,加州醫療保健服務部 (DHCS) 成立了Medi-Cal 之聲與願景委員會,這是一個史無前例的諮詢小組,匯集了 Medi-Cal 會員、護理人員、醫療服務提供者、社區組織、倡導團體和縣級合作夥伴,共同塑造 Medi-Cal 政策、計劃和實施的未來。透過將親身經歷直接融入政策制定過程,該委員會確保 Medi-Cal 的政策和計劃以服務對象的實際需求為基礎,並透過與醫療保健專家和系統領導者的合作不斷完善。
The Voices and Vision Council held its inaugural meeting alongside the established Medi-Cal Member Advisory Committee to launch a new collaborative structure that brings together lived experience and system expertise to shape Medi-Cal policy.
“The Medi-Cal Voices and Vision Council is a vital platform for ensuring that Medi-Cal members and community partners help shape how we deliver care,” said DHCS Director Michelle Baass. “We are committed to strengthening our Medi-Cal program so it is more equitable, responsive, and grounded in the voices of the people we serve. This council reflects our belief that meaningful change and innovation begin with listening and acting on what people tell us they need.”
「Medi-Cal 提供的護理服務讓我的兒子能夠和家人一起在家中保持健康和安全,」家長兼 Voices and Vision Council 成員 Jenny McLelland說。“委員會讓我有機會分享我作為照顧者的經歷,並確保像我這樣的家庭在改善加州醫療補助計劃(Medi-Cal)方面擁有發言權,使之更好地服務於所有加州人。”
WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT: The Voices and Vision Council and the Medi-Cal Member Advisory Committee help ensure that Medi-Cal members remain at the heart of policy development and program administration. These two advisory bodies work in close partnership with DHCS leaders and policy experts to co-design equity-centered programs and policy solutions that reflect the real needs of members.
透過直接與會員和利害關係人互動,DHCS 正在建立基礎設施,以便處理對其服務對象而言最重要的事情。每季度的會議都以成員和護理人員分享的見解為中心。這些討論有助於加州醫療保健服務部 (DHCS) 將回饋轉化為切實可行的改進措施,從而加強加州醫療補助計劃
Medi-Cal
對加州各地社區的支持。背景: 2023 年,DHCS 成立了 Medi-Cal 會員諮詢委員會,這是美國首批正式諮詢小組之一,其成員完全由 Medi-Cal 會員及其家人和護理人員等支持者組成。2024 年,聯邦醫療保險和醫療補助服務中心發布了《確保獲得醫療補助服務規則》 ,該規則要求所有州在 7 月之前設立兩個諮詢機構:一個由成員和護理人員組成的受益人諮詢委員會,以及一個包括提供者的醫療補助諮詢委員會,該委員會至少 25% 的成員來自受益人諮詢委員會10 , 2027 。
To meet this requirement, California designated its existing Medi-Cal Member Advisory Committee as the state’s Beneficiary Advisory Council and created the Medi-Cal Voices and Vision Council as its Medicaid Advisory Committee. Together, these groups are designed to create a continuous feedback loop: The Medi-Cal Member Advisory Committee will meet first each quarter to surface themes and priorities from members and caregivers, which will then inform the Voices and Vision Council’s policy and operational discussions. Potential topics include access to care, service delivery, communication, and other issues that influence how Medi-Cal works for the people it serves.
接下來: Medi-Cal Voices and Vision Council 的第一次公開會議將於 3 月18 、 2026舉行。兩個團體的會議日程、議程、會議記錄和成員名單都將公開提供。如需了解更多信息,包括如何註冊參加首次公開會議,請訪問“聲音與願景委員會”網頁。
關於聲音與願景委員會成員:聲音與願景委員會由來自California各地的 16 位Medi-Cal成員和領導人組成,他們帶來了來自倡導團體、社區組織、健康中心、縣衛生和社會服務部門、管理式醫療計劃和Health Plan協會的經驗。
