What’s happening: Invoices for the 2023-24 Hospital Fee Program, fee-for-service cycle 4, were mailed on June 24.
What else to know: Payments to the Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) are due on July 24.
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 use the attached U.S. Bank wire instructions.
It is critical that all hospitals pay their invoices in full and on time. CHA encourages those at risk of not paying their invoices in full by July 24 to notify DHCS in advance of the due date about any financial hardship.
To notify DHCS directly, ask questions, or request an electronic copy of your invoice, email qaf@dhcs.ca.gov.
