See Schedule O for further details. 1076356 Health Coverage Outreach and Enrollment. Through this program, MCHA provides one-on-one education and assistance to low income people seeking quality health coverage and access to services. MCHA educates people about health coverage options, helps them enroll in or renew their coverage, and works to ensure they are able to use it with clinics, doctors, hospitals, pharmacies and other access points. The greatest need, however, is troubleshooting, or fixing the health coverage when its not working, when clients must switch health programs, or when have trouble getting the health care they need. We use this knowledge to engage in broader advocacy to improve health delivery systems. 240487 MCHA's other program consists of Policy/Advocacy, CalFresh enrollment and a Community Mental Health Subcontract. Other programs provide support for high risk pregnant or parenting women through Perinatal Outreach and Education, to support women through case management up to the babys second birthday.
