California AB1012 expands Medi-Cal eligibility to certain individuals regardless of immigration status.

California AB1012 amends the Welfare and Institutions Code to expand Medi-Cal eligibility. It allows individuals aged 25 and under, 26 to 49, and 50 and older who lack satisfactory immigration status to receive full Medi-Cal benefits if they meet other eligibility criteria. The bill mandates outreach strategies and enrollment in Medi-Cal managed care health plans, while ensuring beneficiaries can maintain their primary care providers. It also establishes the Serving Our Seniors Fund to support Medicare Part B premiums for eligible individuals.
