The California Medical Assistance Program known as “Medi‑Cal” is the California Medicaid welfare program serving low‑income individuals, including families, seniors, persons with disabilities, children in foster care, pregnant women, and childless adults with incomes below 138% of federal poverty level.

Jointly administered by the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) and the federal Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), its many services are implemented at local level by California counties. Approximately 12.5 million Californians are enrolled in Medi‑Cal as of May 2015, about 32.4% of the state’s population.
