California Health Foundation Urges Coordinated State Response to Medi-Cal Coverage Losses
California Health Care Foundation's health policy director testified before state lawmakers about millions of Californians losing Medi-Cal coverage and proposed a coordinated statewide response. The testimony addressed the growing uninsured population following what appears to be Medicaid redeterminations or eligibility changes. CHCF recommended state-level interventions to address coverage gaps and re-enrollment barriers. The testimony comes as California grapples with post-pandemic unwinding consequences and seeks policy solutions to stabilize coverage for vulnerable populations.
California operates the nation's largest Medicaid program, and widespread coverage losses directly affect MCO enrollment, capitation revenue, provider networks, and continuity of care for plans serving Medi-Cal beneficiaries.
