Governor Brown signed SB 815 by Senators Hernandez and Pro tem de
León, which implements portions of California’s new Medicaid
Section 1115 “Medi-Cal 2020” Waiver. This new waiver, approved in
December 2015, builds on the successes California has achieved in
expanding coverage, transforming care, and improving health
outcomes. AB 1568, by Assembly Member Bonta, which implements the
other portions of the new Medi-Cal 2020 Waiver, was chaptered by
the Secretary of State earlier in July. CSAC supported both SB
815 and AB 1568.
