Health-insuring
organizations that are organized and operated by a governing board
appointed by the county’s Board of Supervisors. All Medi-Cal
beneficiaries residing within the county are required to enroll unless
they have a voluntary aid code, which allows them to enroll in
fee-for-service Medi-Cal. The first plan was implemented in Santa
Barbara County in 1983. Five County Organized Health Systems plans
operate in eight counties: Monterey, Napa, Orange, San Mateo, Santa
Barbara, Santa Cruz, Solano, and Yolo.
