Summary

The bill directs the Department of Health Care Services to develop an online dashboard that reports Medi‑Cal applications, enrollments, redeterminations and terminations, focusing on the impact of recent federal requirements. It also requires the state, counties and managed‑care plans to conduct outreach and education about work or community‑engagement obligations, exemptions, appeals and how to keep coverage. The aim is to improve transparency, reduce unnecessary disenrollments, and help beneficiaries comply with the new federal law.
