SB 1422 Committee Hearing April 20 — Bill to Restore Full Medi-Cal for Undocumented Adults Faces Critical Gate
Sen. Durazo's SB 1422 — which would restore full Medi-Cal eligibility for undocumented adults, reversing the January 2026 enrollment freeze — reaches its first committee hearing April 20, 2026. CPCA and health center advocates are expected to testify. If the bill advances, FQHCs could see UIS patient revenue restored by 2027; if it stalls, the PPS payment elimination for undocumented patients is entrenched through at least the end of the current legislative session.
