Dear SFHP Members: Congress was unable to reach an agreement on funding for Fiscal Year 2026, and the federal government was shut down on October 1, 2025. While we do not know how long the shutdown will last, SFHP will continue its operations as normal. You can still access the care you need. We are committed to ensuring your access to care is not interrupted. If you encounter any issues, please contact SFHP Customer Service at 1(415) 547 7800 or toll-free 1(800) 288 5555 (TTY users can dial 711). We’re open Monday through Friday, from 8:00am to 5:00pm.

San Francisco Health Plan has selected American Specialty Health (ASH Plans of California) as its chiropractic services provider. The selection of ASH expands access to chiropractic services for our Medi-Cal Members with neck and back pain beyond the Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHC).

Chiropractic care remains available to SFHP members assigned to a FQHC.

As of September 1, 2019, the expanded SFHP benefit covers:

  • Medi-Cal members only (in any Medical Group)
  • Medi-Cal members 18 years of age and older
  • Medi-Cal members who do not have Medicare part B Coverage
  • Spinal manipulation services for diagnoses of back and neck pain only

This expanded chiropractic benefit is accessed by members directly through American Specialty Health (ASH Plans of California). Eligible members have access to ASH Plans of California’s network of participating providers here in San Francisco and the immediate surrounding counties. No referral is needed for these services.
