Also in California, NACDS and the California Retailers Association worked with Magellan and the Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) to conduct an informational webinar on October 13 for chain pharmacies to learn about the important elements related to implementation of Medi-Cal Rx (start date of January 1, 2022). Both the presentation and the audio recording are available.  To access the recording, use this link and click on “↓ Download (3 files)” in the upper right corner of the webpage.
