Reporting Changes to Medi-Cal

If your child has Medi-Cal coverage, he or she needs to report any changes in earned income, unearned income, and living arrangements within 10 days of the change. You and your child's other parent must also report changes if you live with the child and your child either gets income-based Medi-Cal coverage or is under 18.

How to report changes depends on how your child qualifies for Medi-Cal:

• If your child gets Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits or qualifies for SSI 1619(b), he or she only has to report to the local Social Security office.
• If your child doesn't get SSI, report to the local county social services agency.
