Multipurpose Senior Services Program (MSSP)
Who We Are
California Health Collaborative’s Multipurpose Senior Services Program (MSSP) provides care coordination, case management, and advocacy services to older adults on Medi-Cal whose physical or cognitive limitations put them at risk of nursing home placement. MSSP care managers are registered nurses and social workers who assist participants with accessing the services they need to remain living safely in their homes. CHC’s MSSP is part of a statewide system funded through a Medicaid (Medi-Cal) waiver to delay or prevent nursing home placement for frail older adults by coordinating services in the home at a lower cost than a nursing home stay. MSSP’s funding and oversight is provided through the California Department of Aging.
