CuratedCalifornia Sen. Maria Elena Durazo (D-Los Angeles) introduced SB 1422 to restore full Medi-Cal eligibility for all income-qualifying adults regardless of immigration status — reversing the January 2026 enrollment freeze that blocked new undocumented applicants. Nearly 1.7M undocumented immigrants are currently enrolled in Medi-Cal. The freeze eliminated PPS payments to FQHCs for UIS patients, forcing health centers to absorb care costs or turn patients away.
⚠️ UPDATE (June 2026): the June 11 two-chamber budget agreement DELAYS this cut 12 months to July 1, 2027 ($1.034B General Fund appropriated for 2026-27) — pending Newsom's signature (deadline June 30; reverts to July 1, 2026 if unsigned). The analysis below describes the cut when it takes effect. — Originally slated for July 1, 2026, California's budget eliminates use of the Prospective Payment System for FQHC services to state-only-funded individuals with unsatisfactory immigration status (UIS). FQHCs will instead be paid at the regular Medi-Cal fee-for-service rate or negotiated managed care plan rates — roughly 50–70% less per encounter than the PPS rate ($200–400/visit). The CA LAO scores this as $1 billion in annual General Fund savings, meaning $1 billion in annual FQHC revenue loss beginning 2026–27. FQHCs with large undocumented patient panels — concentrated in LA, San Diego, and Central Valley — face the most severe financial exposure. Dental benefits for undocumented Medi-Cal enrollees also eliminated: $308M savings in 2026–27.
Beginning July 1, 2027, Medi-Cal members ages 19–59 who are undocumented or have unsatisfactory immigration status (UIS) and remain in full-coverage Medi-Cal will be required to pay a $30 monthly premium to maintain coverage. The UIS dental elimination and the FQHC UIS-PPS cut — both originally slated for July 1, 2026 — were deferred 12 months to July 1, 2027 by the June 11 budget deal (pending the Governor's signature). Combined with the January 2026 enrollment freeze, this represents a compounding disinvestment in California's 1.6 million undocumented Medi-Cal enrollees — raising coverage loss and FQHC revenue risk.
CCHC, an LA County FQHC serving the San Fernando Valley, opened its first out-of-state location in Las Vegas on March 2. The expansion signals the growing sophistication of larger FQHC networks — CCHC grew from 45,000 visits in 2004 to 177,000+ by 2023. The model offers transparent pricing ($125 new patient visits) and walk-in access, which could inform California FQHC expansion strategies.
California Democratic legislators introduce measures to restore Medi-Cal benefits for undocumented adults that were frozen in January 2026, citing the public health and economic costs of coverage gaps. If successful, this would reverse the enrollment freeze and restore PPS encounter revenue for FQHCs serving undocumented populations.
