CAADS March 7, 2024 Webinar Announcement

Learn How the State's HELP II Low-Interest Loan Program Can Help Reduce Your Financial Stress

Thursday, March 7, 2024 | 2:30 – 3:30 PM

WHAT WE WILL COVER

The California Health Facilities Financing Authority (CHFFA), in the State Treasurer's Office, manages a program called the Healthcare Expansion Loan Program II (HELP II) which provides low-interest loans for eligible small or rural non-profit health facilities. It has successfully helped many Adult Day Health Care programs over the decades.

But, if you are a for-profit ADHC keep reading! CAADS has been in conversation with CHFFA to imagine what a similar program for a for-profit ADHC community would look like. We would love to gauge your interest in this idea during the webinar.

HELP II fixed-rate low-interest loans may be used to purchase or construct new facilities, remodel or renovate existing facilities, purchase equipment or furnishings, and refinance existing debt. Interest rates are currently 2-3%. HELP II eligibility requires, among other things, facilities with no more than $40m in gross revenues, must be in existence for at least three years performing the same type of services, and must provide audited financial statements for three fiscal years.

Since learning of the ransomware cyberattack on Change Health clearinghouse (a subsidiary of United Health) CAADS has been in steady, almost daily communication with LA Care and state department officials to discuss the status of resolving the fall-out from this unprecedented attack. We completely understand the impact this is having on cash flow.

This is free to all CAADS members.

She will be joined by Renee Nashtut, CEO of TurboTar, who has worked closely with Lydia since the start of the year as a CAADS vendor partner and billing claims expert. We hope you can join us for this discussion.
