部落與印地安人健康專案代表會議
8 月 12 日上午 9:30 至下午 12:30，DHCS 將為部落和印第安人健康計畫代表舉辦一次虛擬會議。會議將討論部落合作夥伴感興趣的 DHCS 計畫和倡議，例如 2022-23 財政年度州政府預算和 DHCS/Medi-Cal 新福利的最新情況。需要提前註冊。如需更多資訊，請瀏覽印第安人健康計劃網頁。
提供者申請和註冊驗證（PAVE）牙科提供者入口網站培訓課程
8 月 24 日上午 11 時至下午 12 時，DHCS 將為牙科提供一個小時的 PAVE 介紹。 從 10 月 31 日起，DHCS 將為牙科提供者實施 PAVE 門戶，為 DHCS 提供了一種新的模式來提交牙醫提供者註冊申請和所需文件。 這允許申請人使用 Medi-Cal 提供者電子表格申請，因為 DHCS 在實施 PAVE 後將不再接受紙質申請。
Additionally, on October 12, DHCS will provide an overview of PAVE’s key features to dental providers, and a more in-depth training session will be scheduled for November, following the implementation of PAVE. The demonstrations will be recorded and posted on the DHCS PAVE webpage. For more information about the training sessions, including the registration link for the August 24 training, please view this Medi-Cal Dental Provider Bulletin.
