California Code, Welfare and Institutions Code - WIC § 14683

(a) That mental health plans include a process for screening, referral, and coordination with other necessary services, including, but not limited to, health, housing, and vocational rehabilitation services.  For Medi-Cal eligible children, the mental health plans shall also provide coordination with education programs and any necessary medical or rehabilitative services, including, but not limited to, those provided under the California Children's Services Program (Article 5 (commencing with Section 123800) of Chapter 3 of Part 2 of Division 106 of the Health and Safety Code) and the Child Health and Disability Prevention Program (Article 6 (commencing with Section 124025) of Chapter 3 of Part 2 of Division 106 of the Health and Safety Code), and those provided by a fee-for-service provider or a Medi-Cal managed care plan.  This subdivision shall not be construed to establish any higher level of service from a county than is required under existing law.  The mental health plan shall not be liable for the failure of other agencies responsible for the provision of nonmental health services to provide those services or to participate in coordination efforts.

(b) That mental health plans include a system of outreach to enable Medi-Cal beneficiaries and providers to participate in and access Medi-Cal specialty mental health services under the plans, consistent with existing law.
