SUBJECT: Approve Appropriation and Revenue Adjustment for the Employment and Human
Services Department (EHSD)
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION:
Employment and Human Services (0503, 0501): APPROVE Appropriation and Revenue Adjustment
No. 9014 authorizing adjustments to recognize new revenue in the amount of$65,566 from State of
California Medi-Cal Program funds appropriating it to fund two (2) Social Service Appeal Officer positions in
EHSD Administrative Services for Medi-Cal related appeals.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The financial impact recognizes additional claimed expenses drawn against Medi-Cal revenues. No County
General Funds required.
BACKGROUND:
EHSD requests approval to add and fund two (2) Social Service Appeal Officer positions in order to meet the
State mandated due process needs of applicants and recipients of the Medi-Cal Program. EHSD has
experienced a significant increase in requests for State hearings regarding appeal issues related to Medi-Cal.
Due to the current inadequate staffing levels in the EHSD Appeals Unit, many appeal requests are made to the
State resulting in additional hearing dates and delays. The result is that client rights may be violated because
the County is unable to resolve the matter within 90 days of the initial request for a State hearing.

CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION;
If this action is not approved, EHSD will not be able to protect the due process rights of applicants and
recipients whose much needed Medi-Cal benefits are being erroneously suspended, reduced or terminated.
The result will be that the Medi-Cal population may go without medical attention and medications, while they
await the availability of the Appeal Officer to review their Medi-Cal case.
