Medi-Cal: skilled nursing facility services.

Summary

The bill changes the Medi‑Cal Workforce and Quality Incentive Program so that skilled nursing facilities can receive performance‑based payments even if they are not in a Medi‑Cal managed‑care network, and it makes those payments retroactive to July 9 2024. It also adds technical edits to the law governing how police can place minors in temporary custody and send them to community service programs. The changes affect low‑income Medi‑Cal enrollees, nursing facilities, managed‑care plans, and child‑welfare agencies.
