LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
Existing law establishes the Medi-Cal program, which is administered by the State Department of Health Care Services, under which qualified low-income individuals receive health care services. The Medi-Cal program is, in part, governed and funded by federal Medicaid program provisions. Existing law requires an emergency medical transport provider to report data to the department on the number of actual emergency medical transports by payer type and on gross receipts, as defined, in accordance with a specified timeline in a manner and form prescribed by the department. Existing law authorizes the department to require a certification by an emergency medical transport provider, under penalty of perjury, of the truth of these data reports.
This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to these provisions.
