  1. What’s the difference in The Aged-FPL Program, no share of cost, and Medi-Cal with a share of cost.

    Which overrides if you have IHSS. In Home Support Services

  2. My client has a share of cost with Medi-Cal of $439, and they currently have IHSS. and IHSS states NO SHARE OF COST

    Here’s my question, that is complicated to me.

    They also qualify under the Aged-FPL Program which is has NO share of cost.

    So does that mean they do not have to Pay the $439 to their Care-provider.

    They have a Medicare Part B premium,

    an additional policy for vision, and dental as a medical deduction.

    Please advised.

    Do they have to pay in sharing the cost for a CAREGIVER $439 or NOT

    We are in Alameda County.

  3. My child wants to play sports at his public school. They are telling me that Medi-Cal isn’t good enough. What can I do?

    • We are unable to find anything online about high schools requiring health insurance. Please send us they letter from your school.

      3. What is the difference in coverage between Medi-Cal and Covered California?​​​​

      Medi-Cal is health coverage, just like the coverage offered through Covered California. Medi-Cal provides benefits similar to the coverage options available through Covered California, but often at lower or no cost to you or your family. All of the health plans offered through Covered California or by Medi-Cal include the same comprehensive set of benefits known as “essential health benefits.”

      Essential health benefits consist of:

      Outpatient (Ambulatory) services
      Emergency services
      Hospitalization
      Maternity and Newborn care
      Mental Health and Substance Use Disorder Services, including Behavioral Health Treatment
      Prescription Drugs
      Programs such as physical and occupational therapy (known as Rehabilitative & Habilitative Services) and devices
      Laboratory services
      Preventive and wellness services & chronic disease management
      Children’s (Pediatric) services, including oral and vision care.

      A recent survey of Medi-Cal members by the California Healthcare Foundation (CHCF) found that 90% of respondents rate Medi-Cal as a good or very good program. Medi-Cal emphasizes prevention-oriented health care that promotes health and well-being and works to ensure members receive the right care at the right time.​ dhcs.ca.gov/Medi-Cal FAQs

    • Depends on what you mean by “supplemental?” The “health” insurance portion of Medi-Cal is pretty comprehensive. Most everything is zero co-pay. Even dental is covered. Take a look at the Summary of benefits for the HMO you get assigned to. See if there are any gaps your concerned about.

      I don’t know why they want Medicare for All, with 30 percent of California’s on Medi-Cal, it might look more like Medi Cal for all. Did we get to keep our doctors?

  4. My son is disabled, he has a developmental and mental condition. He receives medicare and medi-cal. Could you please let me know if he is eligible for Full Scope Medicare [Medi-Cal].

    He needs dental work and according to the dentist he is not covered.

    Mother and care taker.
