​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​Child Health and Disability Prevention Program Transition

Senate Bill (SB) 184 authorizes the Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) to transition the Child Health and Disability Prevention (CHDP) Program effective July 1, 2024. Transitioning the CHDP Program aligns with the Department’s goal under CalAIM to reduce administrative complexities, enhance coordination of care and whole person care approach, and increase standardization of care across Medi-Cal by consolidating care responsibilities for children/youth under the Medi-Cal managed care plans.

The CHDP transition preserves:

  • Presumptive eligibility enrollment activities currently offered through the CHDP Gateway,
  • Activities under the CHDP-Childhood Lead Poisoning Prevention Program (CLPP); and,
  • The Health Care Program for Children in Foster Care (HCPCFC)​
