The CPCA Medi-Cal Health Enrollment Navigators Project (Navigators Project) launched alongside the Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) has awarded $17.75 million to subcontractors for work completed between January 1, 2024 and June 30, 2025. The funding is dedicated to community health centers (CHCs) and regional clinic associations (consortia) that will assist with Medi-Cal outreach, enrollment, renewal, utilization, and troubleshooting efforts across California.

Impact

The Navigator Project includes 107 community health centers and 10 regional clinic associations that receive funding across 38 counties. Notably, some of these counties have not received any SB 154 funding to date or remain underfunded based on their percentage of Medi-Cal patients. Most organizations supported through this funding have not received any SB 154 funding previously, which demonstrates the wide impact of this program and investment.

This project supports California’s Medi-Cal redetermination and expansion goals and plays a critical role in helping thousands of individuals across California maintain or establish their Medi-Cal coverage. In addition, it supports the enrollment adults ages 26 through 49, regardless of their immigration status, to access full scope Medi-Cal as part of the Medi-Cal Adult Expansion that commenced on January 1, 2024. This project, its associated funding, and subcontractors will provide essential support to ensure access to care for all Californians. It is another crucial step towards #Health4All and achieving health equity in our state.
