Pioneering Section 1115 Waiver Programs:
A Map of California's 1115 Waiver Implementation 

On January 1, 2022, the California Department of Health Care Services launched the California Advancing and Innovating Medi-Cal (CalAIM) program, an 1115 waiver program to make Medi-Cal more equitable, coordinated, and person-centered. The program covers one-third of Californians and perinatal care for half of annual births and will impact the lives of over 14 million Californians.

Findhelp partners with managed care plans throughout the state to support the CalAIM initiatives. Our technology provides the platform to connect with contracted partners and support for billing, invoicing, and reporting.

Learn more about our partnerships to connect Californians to resources that support their basic needs.
