How do I report had Government issued Health insurance from Medi-cal

You do not have to report your Medicare-Cal coverage on your federal tax return.

 

The program only needs to know if you had obtained coverage under the Affordable Care Act, whether you qualified for a Premium Tax Credit and, if so, how much.

 

 ​​​Medi-Cal is California's Medicaid program. This is a public health insurance program which provides needed health care services for low-income individuals including families with children, seniors, persons with disabilities, foster care, pregnant women, and low income people with specific diseases such as tuberculosis, breast cancer, or HIV/AIDS.  Medi-Cal is financed equally by the state and federal government.​
