CenCal Health is a Medi-Cal health plan that works with local providers to deliver healthcare services to members. The organization plans to allocate $7 million to support the program in the two counties.
Three local educational agencies are taking part in the program in San Luis Obispo County and six in Santa Barbara County.
At the Becker's Fall Behavioral Health Summit, taking place November 4–5 in Chicago, behavioral health leaders and executives will explore strategies for expanding access to care, integrating services, addressing workforce challenges and leveraging innovation to improve outcomes across the behavioral health continuum.
