加利福尼亞州的社區支持仍不受影響
DHCS partners may have seen recent updates from the federal Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) regarding the rescission of previous guidance on health-related social needs (HRSN). This guidance outlined pathways for states to incorporate services addressing HRSNs, such as housing supports and nutrition services, into Medicaid programs. This action has raised concerns about the potential impact on programs like Medi-Cal’s Community Supports, which provide critical services to address non-medical factors influencing health.
CMS confirmed that existing approvals, including California’s 1115 waivers supporting Community Supports, remain unaffected. California supports Medi-Cal members having access to essential services that address HRSNs. DHCS will continue the ongoing implementation and delivery of all California Advancing and Innovating Medi-Cal (CalAIM) and Behavioral Health Community-Based Organized Networks of Equitable Care and Treatment (BH-CONNECT) services. DHCS, Medi-Cal managed care plans, and Medi-Cal providers will continue to provide Community Supports to address Medi-Cal members’ HRSNs, help them live healthier lives, and avoid higher, costlier levels of care.
專案更新
更新了卡拉伊姆中卡轉換儀表板
On March 7, DHCS refreshed the CalAIM Medi-Cal Transformation Dashboard. This latest release includes data refreshes for all CalAIM dashboard initiatives and enhancements to the Population Health Management dashboard. Through a series of initiatives and reforms, DHCS is advancing and innovating Medi-Cal to create a more coordinated, person-centered, and equitable health system that works for all Californians. Medi-Cal members have access to new and improved services to receive well-rounded care that goes beyond the doctor’s office or hospital and addresses all physical and mental health needs.
As outlined in its Comprehensive Quality Strategy, DHCS is committed to data-driven improvement, transparency, and accountability to help Medi-Cal members, providers, partners, advocates, and our policy teams understand the progress of these initiatives and their impact on improving quality and reducing health disparities. This dashboard will be improved over time and expanded to include new information as data become available. Please email your questions to CalAIM@dhcs.ca.gov.
