The California Department of Public Health has issued an All Facilities Letter extending the application deadline for skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) requesting a Patient Needs Waiver (PNW) and Workforce Shortage Waiver (WSW) to April 15, 2020. This extension is due to the additional activities experienced by providers related to mitigating the effects of COVID-19. Title 22 requires online submission of waiver applications, which will be accepted until the extended deadline for the fiscal year 2020-2021. First-time users must create an account on the CDPH Flex Waiver webpage and use the online waiver application. Existing users can log in with their current account information. After submitting an online waiver application, providers will receive a confirmation email with a Tracking ID number. For any questions regarding the online waiver application process or a specific application, providers should contact the Centralized Program Flex Unit at FLEXWaiverProgram@cdph.ca.gov.
