Frequently asked questions

What information do I need to submit a referral?

You’ll need the member’s name, date of birth, Medi-Cal ID, health plan, IHSS status and a brief description of their care needs. The more context you can share upfront, including clinical documentation, supporting the members needs, the faster we can confirm eligibility and get care started. Submit a referral

Our team reaches out to the member’s family within one business day of receiving the referral.

Yes! The earlier the better. Submitting a referral before discharge gives our team time to confirm eligibility, secure authorization, and have a their caregiver ready when your member gets home.

We are contracted with all 24 Medi-Cal managed care plans across all 58 California counties. We work directly with the member’s plan to secure authorization so your team doesn’t need to navigate that process.

Submit the referral. We will work with the member to identify a familiar caregiver. Caregivers can be a family member, neighbor, community member or friend.
