Jackie Lincer, Branch Chief, Region VII, and her group from the Orange County District Office of CDPH Licensing & Certification spoke about updates and policy changes, F329, Plan of Correction and its elements, and top cited tags in Orange County for SNFs. OneCare Connect Overview: Javier Sanchez provided a detailed overview of the OneCare Connect Program being implemented in the State of California. Part of a national pilot program for people with Medicare and Medi-Cal ("Medi-Medis" or "Dual Eligibles"). California is implementing Cal MediConnect via legislation, called the Coordinated Care Initiative (CCI). CCI has two primary components: 1) Cal MediConnect, which integrates Medicare and Medi-Cal into a single plan (OneCare Connect is CalOptima's Cal MediConnect plan); and 2) Managed Long-Term Services and Support (MLTSS) as a Managed Care Plan benefit. Javier provided the members with a timeline of events happening up to enrollment, and the goals of each plan. He also informed us of the advantages for members of the programs. Javier handed the microphone over to Candice Gomez for questions and answers.
