California Children's Services (CCS) - Whole Child Model
CCS is a state program that treats children under 21 years of age
with certain health conditions, diseases or chronic health problems and who
meet the CCS program rules. If CenCal Health or your PCP believes your
child has a CCS condition, he or she will be referred to the local county CCS
program.
CCS program staff will decide if your child qualifies for CCS
services. If your child qualifies to get this type of care, CenCal Health’s
Whole Child Pediatric Unit will refer your child to specialty CCS Whole Child
Model providers who will treat him or her for their specific CCS condition. CenCal Health will
coordinate all medical care services for your child for both their CCS
condition and those other services such as physicals, vaccines and well-child
checkups.
