Hello,
I’ve applied for Medi-Cal for my father. He has only SS income of about $1200/mo and he lives alone. He was originally denied Medi-Cal because he had Medicare. He now does not have Medicare so we have applied again. I have a few questions.
1. Can he be disqualified for cash reserves in his bank accounts (he has a total of about $15,000)?
2. What would be the best plan to get (Molina, etc) if he wants Medi-Cal primarily for emergency and ambulance service? (He has Veterans medical benefits for his ongoing health issues, but no emergency transport near him).
3. I took a look at the chart about Silver plans – I have not seen this information before. Does it apply to Medi-Cal recipients? Or only Covered California (non Medi-Cal)? If it does apply to Medi-Cal recipients, what would you suggest for my father?
Thank you
How did he qualify for Medicare?
How did he lose Medicare?
How old is your father?
1 What program of Medi Cal are you trying to qualify for?
I don’t get paid to help people with Medi-Cal. Thus I haven’t studied the plans available to make a comparison. Here’s links to the appropriate websites. https://medi-cal.healthreformquotes.com/hmo-managed-care-providers/
3 $1,200/month = $14,400 which income wise would qualify your Dad for Medi Cal, not Covered CA. So, a Silver Plan wouldn’t apply. Which Silver Chart are you talking about? https://enhanced-silver.com/enhanced-silver-cost-sharing-reductions/
It’s my understanding that Medi Cal is even better than Platinum, save for the number of doctors that participate.
Is there a Medi-Cal office in San Pedro I can go to?
I want to drop off my paystub there.

Please note, that we don’t get paid to help you with Medi Cal. Medi-Cal has people making good $$$ with benefits to help you.
Im 22, live with my mother, but she doesn’t support me nor will she file me as her dependent.
Do I have to add her on my application.
Because I have added her and previous applications and have been denied so many times probably, likely because she makes “too much” money according to medi-cal.
Please see above about Medi-Cal wanting you to contact them at [email protected] to ask these questions.
If you file a tax return, check this page.

My mom received a packet about her medi-cal, however, she misplaced it. How will I get the actual form being sent to her. I am afraid we missed the deadline. Can we get another form sent to her again or can we get it online. Please help. Thank you.
What county are you in? If Los Angeles, you can do everything ONLINE.

1 I am my Mom’s POAHC (Power of attorney for Health Care) and POA and we paid a attorney office to file Mom’s original eligibility for Medi-Cal and now I am told we have to file redetermination forms.
2 I am waiting for the Attorney to forward me the forms and I found a form on-line MC 210 RV [8 pages of instructions] and it is requesting MY personal information be part of the information.
3 Mom is currently in a SNF [Skilled Nursing Facility] and is Incapacitated and unable to fill out these forms.
4 Is it your understanding that the person filling out the form place his/her personal information into a redetermination form?
5 I am in the county of San Diego so who can I contact for answers?
6 Oh by the way the Attorney’s office wants a $750 retainer to fill out these forms and Mom’s estate has been reduced to nothing. Do they expect me to come out of pocket for this? EVIDENTLY!
2. See our page on redetermination information on our website. It’s supposed to be automatic renewal. Who told you that you have to file forms? Do you have it in writing? It appears the MC 210 RV form is out of date, considering Health Care Reform, etc.
4. See # 2 and our page on Medi-Cal Nursing Home Costs.

6 Attorney’s have their education to pay for, office and salary expenses. I have expenses and am only doing Medi-Cal as I took a 2-S deferment from Vietnam, got a degree in Insurance and have now been called to duty by our Commander in Chief. It’s your Mother.
