The Student Behavioral Health Incentive Program will serve Medi-Cal members from transitional kindergarten through 12th grade. It was created and is funded by the California Department of Health Care Services.
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.
