Medi-Cal: proof of eligibility.

Existing law establishes the Medi-Cal program, which is administered by the State Department of Health Care Services and under which qualified low-income persons receive health care services. Existing law provides that it is the responsibility of the Medi-Cal beneficiary to provide information and evidence of Medi-Cal eligibility to that person's health care provider if that information is requested by the provider prior to rendering services to that beneficiary.
