Despite the recent rollout of a Medi-Cal community health worker (CHW) benefit in California, fewer than 7,000 Medi-Cal members have been helped through billable wrap-around services. 

Pear Suite is working to change that by empowering hundreds of CHWs and community-based organizations to leverage this financing pathway to serve more Medi-Cal lives and create recurring, sustainable revenue.
