California’s consolidation on Jan. 1 of all its Medicaid (Medi-Cal) prescription drug services under Medi-Cal fee for service does not violate federal law and does not deprive the state’s 340B health centers “of any reimbursement or revenue to which they are entitled under law,” the state Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) told a federal district judge in Sacramento last week.
DHCS asked U.S. District Judge John Mendez of the Eastern District of California in a Feb. 2 legal brief to dismiss the lawsuit that the Community Health Center Alliance for Patient Access (CHCAPA) filed against it on Dec. 30, 2021.
