SANTA CRUZ COUNTY 

ESTATE PLANNING COUNCIL PRESENTS

“Medi-Cal Update”

Wednesday, February 14, 2024, 12:00 – 1:00 p.m.

This year’s Medi-Cal update will lay out the jumble of new rules the

Department of Health Care has come up with as it struggles to fit a very

old and bad wine [the trust regulations created after OBRA 1993] into

the new bottles of asset free Medi Cal eligibility. For patients in long

term care, the route to eligibility will be easier. For patients needing

assistance in memory care units or residential care, the route will be as

impossible as always. And for patients at home, many promising waiver

programs laid over a confusing and not-ready-for-prime-time web of

income rules. On the bright side: transfers are freely available; and we

still can bask in the client friendly recovery climate of the 2016 reforms.
