Keep Your Medi-Cal: What You Need to Know
Chapa-De Indian Health Auburn Grass Valley | Medical Clinic
Medi-Cal covers a wide range of vital health care services for individuals and families. California is restarting their yearly process to determine if members qualify for coverage. Do you or a family member currently have health coverage through Medi-Cal? If so, here’s important information on what you need to keep your Medi-Cal coverage active.
How to Keep Your Medi-Cal
Local county offices will send out a Medi-Cal renewal letter in the mail. The County may not be able to reach you if your contact information has changed since the start of the pandemic. This can lead to a loss of coverage for you or your family. We encourage you to update your name, address, email address, and phone number at BenefitsCal.com or by calling your local Medi-Cal office to ensure you receive this letter.
If you have Medi-Cal, your local county office will try and renew your Medi-Cal. They will use the information they have on file. The local county office will only ask you for more information if they need it to renew your Medi-Cal. If you receive a renewal packet or a letter asking for more information, you may submit the information by mail, phone, in person, or online.
Take time now to ensure that your contact information is up to date. Update your information online HERE. Or find the phone number and address for your local county office HERE.
