Mendocino County’s 42,000 Medi-Cal enrollees will face new eligibility rules from President Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill,” reversing Gov. Newsom’s 2024 legislation. Effective January 1st, asset limits will apply to older adults and people with disabilities, with most assets counted. There are more changes and those could result in coverage loss and increased reliance on emergency care. More information is available at dhcs.ca.gov.
