What We Do
The CCS program provides diagnostic and treatment services, medical case management, and physical and occupational therapy services to children under age 21 with CCS-eligible medical conditions.
Certain diseases, physical limitations, or chronic health problems are eligible for benefits under the CCS Program. The CCS Program is funded by state, county and federal tax money, along with some fees paid by the parents. This tax supported program authorizes and pays for specific medical services and rehabilitation for children by CCS approved specialists and has a Medical Therapy Program.
