HPSM In the News

HPSM's Pioneering Work on Nursing Facility Transitions Featured in New CHCF Factsheet

A new California Health Care Foundation (CHCF) factsheet, "CalAIM Community Supports Early Adopters: Spotlight on Nursing Home Transitions and Diversion," credits an HPSM pilot as the reason that the Medi-Cal managed care plan offers these specialized services. According to the report, "In 2014, well before CalAIM, Health Plan of San Mateo (HPSM) became the first health plan to pilot these services (which) demonstrated not only that it was possible to move people back into the community, but also that this type of coordinated, integrated care improved enrollees’ lives and ultimately reduced health care costs."
