SLMB program covers Medicare part B premium and additional health expenses for Medi-Cal beneficiaries.

  • Eligibility: Medi-Cal provides health coverage and services for California residents that meet eligibility requirements. For some Medi-Cal programs, eligibility requirements may include property and asset limits.

    Medi-Cal provides coverage to a wide range of California residents based on age, disability, income, and citizenship and/or immigration status. Provides no-cost or low-cost health coverage for adults who are aged (65 years or older), blind, disabled, pregnant, or in a long-term facility; for children who are under 21 years of age; or for families with children who receive CalWORKs and/or are deprived of support or care because at least one of their parents is unemployed/underemployed, absent, deceased, or incapacitated.

    With the Affordable Care Act, in 2014 Medi-Cal was expanded to include individuals who are ages 19-65 (the new adult group).

    Children under 19 and Young Adults under 26 years of age, who meet eligibility requirements, are potentially eligible for Full-Scope Medi-Cal coverage regardless of their immigration status. Other eligibility requirements must be met in order to qualify.
