Holle, M. (2004). California can save over a hundred million a year by amending the State Plan to cover domestic and related services under the Medi-Cal personal care services program. Memorandum published on Center for PAS web site:http://pascenter.org/pas_workforce/memo.php
Abstract
Currently slightly over 40% of the cost of the state funded (or original or residual) IHSS program are domestic services cases. Due to a change in federal law, IHSS cases where no nonmedical or paramedical services are authorized are actually eligible for federal financial participation and could be covered as Medi-Cal personal care service through a simple amendment to the state Medicaid plan. This will both address the state's budget shortfall this and remove any reason to eliminate these important services next year.
