Eligible Older Adult Expansion Individuals Enrolled in Medi-Cal

The datasets include the monthly count of individuals 50 years of age or older, by county, receiving full scope Medi-Cal benefits. The counts reflect the total number of eligible individuals enrolled during the month. California provides full scope Medi-Cal benefits to adults 50 years of age or older, regardless of immigration status. Individuals 50 years of age or older, who are lawfully present and not pregnant, are included in this count. The Older Adult Expansion program was implemented May 1, 2022, pursuant to Assembly Bill (AB) 133 (Chapter 143, Statutes of 2021), California Welfare and Institutions Code Section 14007.8. Counties with zero individuals enrolled during a reporting period are not included in the dataset.
