Question: My two sons had been on Healthy Families, their annual review is this month. I submitted proof of income and now received a letter requesting proof of property, and then another stating they have been approved for medi-cal with a $4800 share of cost. Should I not submit the info. they requested and just apply through Covered CA? ( I’m applying for coverage through CC for my husband and myself and the calculator shows they qualify for medi-cal). I’m worried if I complete the annual review we’ll be stuck with that share of cost.
Answer: Right. Ignore the proof of property request from Healthy Families and apply through Covered California for the whole family. The kids will be on Medi-Cal but your assets will not be considered if you apply through CC.
I have been signing up some clients who are Medi-Cal eligible. One asked if it works like to old Medi-Cal where they will ask for charges that you incur while on Medi-Cal.
