After collaboration with CAFP and the California Medical Association, the Pacific Business Group on Health released a proposal called the Care for Californians Initiative, which would require health plans to immediately distribute emergency payments to primary care physicians with fee-for-service contracts, and require the State to convene payers, patient and providers to develop a new, value-based payment and care delivery model that ensure primary care has the resources to deliver patient-centered care to all populations. CAFP rallied consumers, health care providers, and other advocacy groups to urge legislators to adopt the Initiative.
Please go here to make sure the Care for Californians Initiative is enacted by the Legislature.
