Reason for Recommended Action/Background

In 2020 the County entered into State Agreement No. 20-10207 with the California Department of Health Care to receive funding for the Drug Medi-Cal Organized Delivery System (DMC-ODS) to support substance use disorder support services.

Under the DMC-ODS waiver, current Drug Medi-Cal eligible services continue alongside expanded services eligible to be billed to Drug Medi-Cal.  These increased services are available to anyone eligible for Medi-Cal and include Residential Treatment, Intensive Outpatient Treatment, Withdrawal Management (Detoxification), Case Management, and Recovery Services.  The system provides a coordinated entry for clients either through multiple in-person access points or a 1-800 screening number available 24/7.  All providers within the system utilize the same screening tool, allowing for consistency and appropriate client placement based on medical necessity. 

Approval of this Agreement will allow the funding for these vital services to continue.
