EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
On July 29, 2011, the State of California presented to the Food and Nutrition Service (FNS) and the Center for Medicaid, Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), and Survey & Certification (CMS), its plans for reducing the complexity of the eligibility system configuration in California. Those plans included taking the necessary steps to consolidate the existing SAWS Consortia from three systems to two systems. The recommendation was to merge the LA County and C-IV Systems. In September 2011, Assembly Bill ABX1 16 passed. ABX1 16 called for the migration of the 39 C-IV Counties into a single system jointly designed by the 39 counties plus Los Angeles County.
