What’s happening: The Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) is holding the first meeting of the Proposition (Prop) 35 “Protect Access to Health Care Act” Stakeholder Advisory Committee on April 14 from 11:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. (PT). This meeting is open to the public, and registration for virtual attendance is open.
What else to know: In November 2024, voters approved the Protect Access to Health Care Act of 2024 (Prop 35), which will deliver significant resources to providers who care for Californians covered by Medi-Cal (as much as $1.4 billion is expected to support hospitals in 2025 and 2026). The committee will advise and make recommendations to the department on implementing these Prop 35 payments. More details can be found on the DHCS website.
