The Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) has released a draft of the DHCS Comprehensive Quality Strategy (CQS) report for a public comment and tribal review process.

Questions and comments regarding the draft CQS report can be submitted to DHCSComprehensiveQualityStrategy@dhcs.ca.gov by December 23, 2019.

The report highlights DHCS’ coordinated delivery system reform efforts, including the California Advancing and Innovating Medi-Cal proposal, which is the state’s multi-year initiative to implement broad delivery system, program, and payment reform across the Medi-Cal program.

Additionally, the report covers all Medi-Cal managed care delivery systems, including Medi-Cal managed care health plans, county mental health plans, Drug Medi-Cal Organized Delivery Systems, and dental managed care plans, as well as other non-managed care departmental programs.

Any comments received are public documents that could be posted on the DHCS Comprehensive Quality Strategy webpage. DHCS will incorporate public comments, as appropriate, and will submit a final version of the CQS report to CMS in early 2020.
