Proposition 56 HIV/AIDS Waiver Services
This program provides supplemental payments
to certain services under the HIV/AIDS waiver. These services include attendant
care, enhanced case management, homemaker, non-emergency medical
transportation, nutritional counseling, psychotherapy, and skilled nursing
services. The supplemental payments will be provided for dates of service
beginning July 1, 2017. DHCS sought federal approval from the Centers for
Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) of a Waiver Amendment to authorize the
supplemental payments. The Waiver Amendment to authorize the supplemental
payments was approved by CMS on September 21, 2017 and implemented in the
system on November 27, 2017. The referenced HIV/AIDS Waiver Amendment proposal
can be found on the California Department of Public Health AIDS Medi-Cal Waiver Program webpage.
