Summary of Request:
The Medi-Cal program through the Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) works with local government entities and managed care Medi-Cal Plans to implement a specific type of intergovernmental transfer (or IGT) known as a "Rate Range IGT." These IGTs allow local governments to bring additional federal dollars into the Medi-Cal system to improve health care access and outcomes for Medi-Cal beneficiaries.
Mendocino County Health and Human Services is seeking the approval from the Board of Supervisors to continue participation in IGT. This transaction will result in new funds to support services benefitting Medi-Cal patients. HHSA will transfer public health realignment funds (a total of $1,732,513, plus a 20 percent assessment fee of $346,503) to DHCS, who will use the funds to draw down additional federal funds. HHSA will receive an amount approximately equal to its own transferred funds plus net new federal matching funds to support health services for Medi-Cal beneficiaries. These transactions will result in net increase of new federal funds to support local services of approximately $1,247,410 in FY 2018-19.
