About the Webinar:
California’s Medi-Cal Doula Benefit allows doulas and community programs to be reimbursed for prenatal, birth, and postpartum care. With generous reimbursement rates and clear guidance from the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS), this benefit can help doulas deliver high-quality care while getting paid for the critical services they provide.
Join Pear Suite for a practical webinar that walks through how to become a Medi-Cal-enrolled doula, navigate documentation and claims, and build a sustainable doula program. Attendees will also hear from doulas currently using Pear Suite to manage care and billing efficiently.
