Medi-Cal Administrative Activities (MAA)

MAA is a federal program initiated in 1995 that reimburses Local Governmental Agencies (LGAs) that participate to promote and maintain the Medi-Cal program in the State of California. Through the MAA program, Placer County and DHCS promote access to health care for clients in the county public health system, minimize health care costs and long-term health care needs for at risk populations, and coordinate client health care needs with other health care providers. MAA activities include, but are not limited to, conducting Medi-Cal outreach, facilitating Medi-Cal eligibility determinations, Medi-Cal program planning, and Medi-Cal contract administration.
