What’s happening: Payments for the Hospital Quality Assurance Fee program 8 fee-for-service were due to the Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) on May 7.
What else to know: Invoices were mailed to hospitals from DHCS on April 17. CHA encourages those that have not paid to notify DHCS and communicate a time frame for payment.
DHCS prefers fee payments to be made via electronic funds transfer (EFT). However, wire transfers are still accepted. As of June 1, 2023, DHCS has begun processing EFTs, including wire payments, through U.S. Bank. For payments sent via wire, please refer to the U.S. Bank wire instructions.
To notify DHCS directly, ask questions, or request an electronic copy of your invoice, email qaf@dhcs.ca.gov.
