Specialty Mental Health Services State Plan Amendment (SPA) Stakeholder Meetings
Background
The Department of Mental Health (DMH) and the Department of Heath Care Services (DHCS) are in the process of amending California’s Medicaid State Plan sections related to Specialty Mental Health Services. The State Plan Amendments (SPAs) will update California’s Medicaid State Plan to reflect the current specialty mental health delivery system that exists under the Specialty Mental Health Services 1915(b) Waiver Program. DMH, with DHCS assistance, is hosting interactive meetings to provide stakeholders with information and facilitate discussion regarding California's current SPAs related to specialty mental health services. Meeting materials and other information related to the SPA stakeholder meetings will be posted and updated on this webpage on an ongoing basis.
