● Income cutoffs are determined by Federal Poverty Level (FLP). The FLP is updated annually on April 1.

● "To qualify for Medi-Cal, income cannot exceed 138% FLP.

● Eligibility status can be checked on BenefitsCal.com. This is also where holders can go for the annual renewal process or to report changes in contact information.
