    I recently got approved for Medi Cal and chose Anthem as the insurance.
    I'm going to go to the doctor in about 3 weeks and see what happens.

    It's been 4 months since I was told I need a biopsy to check for cancer. I curse anyone involved for creating, administering or peeer reviewing for this plan. Once again, i am considering spending my own money for acceptable treatment

      Its called socialist healthcare and it's horrible. We must privatize more things. Privatization brings out the quality on everything. Social/Gov organizations are watered down and just dont have the quality that provate businesses do

    Hello Coach: Is it beneficial to have a Medical license as they only pay $15 an hour here in Marysville CA. This is why IHSS is embedded in each county to provide home care services rather than go through private home care. While caregivers are paid a minimum of $17.50, can someone that have more details explain more information if this is really beneficial to home care agencies?

    I cannot stand Medi-Cal. Interesting that she says "most necessary care." That means some necessary care is not covered.

    Medi-cal is the healthcare equivalent of Joe Biden at the 2024 presidential debate.
