The Assisted Living Waiver Program (ALWP) for licensed facilities is operated by the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) and provides government-subsidized board and care to Californians who qualify for Medi-Cal.
Licensed RCFE/ARF facilities must be a DHCS-approved vendor to participate in the program, provide the care and receive reimbursement for 1 of 5 Tiers (Levels of Care) of service provided. As with most government programs, the application process can be complex and meticulously detailed.
The CompECS team works with the facility licensees/administrators to determine the facility’s eligibility, follow the necessary steps and to prepare & complete the application packet for submission to DHCS.
For more information and/or to begin the application process, call or email info@CompECS.net.
