Summary of Request:
The California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) releases a Medi-Cal Privacy and Security Agreement every three years to all California County Welfare Departments to ensure the security and privacy of Medi-Cal Personally Identifiable Information contained in the Medi-Cal Eligibility Data System, the Applicant Income and Eligibility Verification System, and in data received from the Social Security Administration and other sources. Health and Human Services Agency, Employment and Family Assistance Services, is required to enter into this proposed Agreement to ensure the continued transmission of Personally Identifiable Information between the counties and DHCS.
Health and Human Services Agency received this Agreement in August with a start date of September 1, 2019, which necessitated a retroactive start date. DHCS granted a 90-day extension of the 2016 Agreement in order to process the proposed 2019 Agreement.
