Whole Child Model (WCM)
Effective July 1, 2019 the California Children’s Services (CCS) services will transition to the CalOptima Whole Child Model Program.
CCS is a statewide program providing medical care and case management for children under 21 with certain medical conditions that were locally administered by the Orange County Health Care Agency. Starting July 1, 2019, the Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) is implementing WCM to integrate CCS services into CalOptima for Orange County.
Whole Child Model goals:
- Combine CCS and Medi-Cal services under one managed care plan.
- Improve coordination of services to meet the need of the child and family.
- Maintain existing patient-provider relationships when possible.
- Retain CCS program standards.
- Improve overall health results.
- Improve access to care.
