Summary

Existing law provides for the Medi-Cal program, which is administered by the State Department of Health Care Services, under which qualified low-income individuals receive health care services. The Medi-Cal program is, in part, governed and funded by federal Medicaid Program provisions. Existing law authorizes the department to adopt regulations for the certification of each provider in the Medi-Cal program. Existing law also provides for the Medi-Cal Drug Treatment Program (Drug Medi-Cal) , under which the department is authorized to enter into contracts with counties for various drug treatment services to Medi-Cal recipients, or is required to directly arrange for these services if a county elects not to do so. This bill would require the department, in coordination with the counties, to ensure the implementation of procedures, for purposes of the Drug Medi-Cal program, to routinely identify and initiate recovery efforts for payments that the county authorizes either (1) between the effective date of a provider's decertification and the date the county receives information regarding the decertification or (2) after a beneficiary's date of death.
