Earlier this month, the Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) sent hospitals invoices covering fee-for-service cycle 8 of the 2017-19 Hospital Fee Program. The cycle eight invoice covers Oct. 1, 2018-Dec. 31, 2018, and was due Jan. 2. DHCS collected enough fees to pay nearly 100 percent of the modeled cycle eight Medi-Cal fee-for-service payments, and will issue payments to providers on Jan. 21.
