Genetically Handicapped Persons Program.

Abstract

Existing law requires the Director of Health Care Services to establish and administer a program, called the Holden-Moscone-Garamendi Genetically Handicapped Persons Program (GHPP) , for the medical care of persons with specified genetic conditions, including cystic fibrosis, hemophilia, sickle cell disease, Huntington's disease, Friedreich's Ataxia, Joseph's disease, and Von Hippel-Landau syndrome, specified metabolic disorders, and other genetic organic acidemias that require specialized treatment or service available from only a limited number of program-approved sources. Existing law requires the program to provide access for these persons to social support services. This bill would add mucopolysaccharidosis, a group of metabolic disorders, to the list of medical conditions eligible for coverage under the GHPP.
