Medi-Cal is changing. Here’s what to do if you’re worried about coverage

Medi-Cal in California is undergoing changes due to federal and state budget cuts, primarily affecting non-citizens such as undocumented immigrants, refugees, and some green card holders. Key changes include restricted eligibility for undocumented adults over 19 starting January 1, 2025, and further restrictions for other groups by 2027, including dental coverage loss and monthly fees. Individuals are advised to update contact information and monitor official communications.
