KESQCentro Medico Coachella The Borrego Community Health Foundation (Borrego Health) has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, officials announced Monday. Borrego's legal filing is driven by the August 19th notification from the State of California Health and Human Services Agency – Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) that the state intends to reimpose its 100% payment suspension on all Borrego Health Medi-Cal services beginning Sept. 29.   The Chapter 11 process will prevent the DHCS action from taking effect while also resolving ongoing state and federal investigations.
