Can I still receive Medi-Cal if I have a job?

Asked 2 years ago
Yes, individuals can still receive Medi-Cal benefits even if they have a job. Eligibility for Medi-Cal is determined by several factors, including income level, household size, and specific circumstances related to the individual's health needs. In California, there are income limits that vary based on the number of people in the household. Many people with jobs qualify for Medi-Cal because the program offers a range of income thresholds depending on personal situations, such as whether an individual has children or disabilities. It is important to understand that earning income may impact the benefits received, so individuals should be aware of how their job could influence their eligibility. For the most accurate information, it may be helpful to refer to the official Medi-Cal website, which provides detailed guidance on income requirements and other factors that affect eligibility.
