Medi-Cal Eligibility Process Improvement Collaborative

Welcome to the Medi-Cal Eligibility Process Improvement Collaborative (MEPIC) Web site!

MEPIC is a 15-month project (December 2006 – February 2008), during which 13 California counties will work to improve access to and retention of public health coverage for eligible families by improving the efficiency, effectiveness and accuracy of Medi-Cal and SCHIP eligibility enrollment processes. Counties participating in MEPIC are Fresno, Humboldt, Lake, Lassen, Los Angeles, Napa, Nevada, Sacramento, San Diego, Santa Clara, Solano, Tulare and Yuba.

MEPIC participants will:

  • Develop goals to improve eligibility processes;
  • Learn about process improvement methodologies, including the Model for Improvement
  • Use the Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) model of testing strategies on a small scale, collect data and use outcome measurement to assess progress toward team goals to learn what works (and what doesn’t) during two Action Periods that occur between the three Learning Sessions; and
  • Share promising practices with other counties and stakeholders and encourage statewide implementation of successfully demonstrated improvements
  • The Medi-Cal Collaborative is supported by a grant from the California HealthCare Foundation, based in Oakland, California, and is directed by the Process Improvement Center at the Southern Institute on Children and Families.
