Attention Patients: Change in CA State Law for Medi-Cal Benefits
Due to a recent change in state law, the Department of Health Care Services will no longer pay for some Medi-Cal benefits for most adults ages 21 and older. This change of law goes into effect on July 1, 2009. Availability of the following Medi-Cal benefits has changed for adults: dental services, acupuncture services, podiatric services, psychology services, and incontinence creams and washes. All other Medi-Cal services will remain unchanged at this time.
