CCS is a state-funded program that provides diagnostic and treatment services, medical case management, and physical and occupational therapy services to children under age 21 with CCS-eligible medical conditions. Examples of CCS-eligible conditions include, but are not limited to, chronic medical conditions such as cystic fibrosis, hemophilia, cerebral palsy, heart disease, cancer, traumatic injuries, and infectious diseases producing major sequelae. CCS also provides medical therapy services that are delivered at public schools.
TIP: Keep in mind that if you have private insurance, providers are required to bill a CCS client’s private insurance first before billing the CCS program. Then if authorized and approved, CCS will pay for anything that the insurance does not.
