Under the new health care law, millions more Californians will become eligible for Medi-Cal and subsidized federal health insurance.
Who is the best choice for handling the influx of new enrollees? County Eligibility Workers.

“California’s 25,000 eligibility workers are highly skilled professionals with the training, knowledge, and expertise in guiding people through the complex eligibility and enrollment process for public assistance programs such as Medi-Cal. Our work is to keep the safety net open for everyone.”
— Robert Padilla
Eligibility Worker, 521 member

  • Local services should be done by local workers
  • Counties have the trained staff and infrastructure to provide the most efficient, highest quality services
  • Counties are best positioned to support the horizontal integration of social services, including Medi-Cal, CalFresh, and CalWORKs
