The Comprehensive Perinatal Services Program (CPSP) is a Medi-Cal benefit that provides a wide range of culturally competent services to pregnant women from conception through 60 days postpartum. The CPSP model was founded on the belief that pregnancy and birth outcomes improve when routine obstetric care (prenatal, delivery, and postpartum care) is integrated with specific nutrition, health education, and psychosocial services.

CPSP has uniquely divided authority between the Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) and the California Department of Public Health (CDPH). CDPH is responsible for CPSP provider enrollment and monitoring/oversight of the implementation of the CPSP Program. As a Medi-Cal benefit, DHCS is responsible for reimbursement to approved CPSP providers for performing CPSP services to eligible beneficiaries.​​​​​​​​​​​
