California will begin reviewing the eligibility of at least 15 million Medi-Cal enrollees, health officials said.

As of this April, California has 14 months to review the eligibility of beneficiaries of the Medi-Cal program, which provides access to health services to children, pregnant women, adults, seniors and people with disabilities who have low incomes.

After a pause due to the COVID-19 pandemic, April marks the start of a review in which state officials believe that at least 2 to 3 million people could lose coverage because they no longer qualify or are not informed that they must renew it.
