When Is Medi-Cal Renewal?

Medi-Cal renewal happens throughout the year, occurring on the anniversary of your enrollment in Medi-Cal. If members of your household have Medi-Cal, they will receive a Medi-Cal renewal form from their local county human services agency.

Does Medi-Cal automatically renew?

Medi-Cal members must renew their coverage each year to keep their health care benefits. For most members, coverage is renewed automatically.

Is Medi-Cal month to month?

You only need to meet your Share of Cost in the months that you get health care services. After you meet your share of cost, Medi-Cal pays for your care the rest of that month.
