FAQ

I applied for health coverage through CoveredCA.com. Why am I receiving information from Medi-Cal?

Covered California and Medi-Cal use the same application. This means that when you apply, depending on factors such as your family size, income and citizenship or immigration status, you could qualify for:


  • A Covered California health plan with or without financial assistance

  • Medi-Cal

  • Medi-Cal Access Program for pregnant women



For individuals who qualify (or likely qualify) for Medi-Cal, their application will be sent to the County Social Services Agency for processing. In some cases, after you apply, we may need more information from you to make sure you qualify for Medi-Cal. In those cases, the County Social Services Agency may contact you to verify that information.
