	BILL TEXT


INTRODUCED BY   Assembly Member Ridley-Thomas

                        FEBRUARY 26, 2015

   An act to amend Section 14001 of the Welfare and Institutions
Code, relating to Medi-Cal.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 1070, as introduced, Ridley-Thomas. Medi-Cal.
   Existing law establishes the Medi-Cal program, which is
administered by the State Department of Health Care Services, and
under which qualified low-income individuals receive health care
services. The Medi-Cal program is, in part, governed and funded by
federal Medicaid Program provisions. Under existing law, health care,
as administered under the Medi-Cal program, is considered a
component of public social services.
   This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to those
provisions.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  Section 14001 of the Welfare and Institutions Code is
amended to read:
   14001.  Health care  ,  as administered under this
chapter  ,  shall be considered a component of public social
services.
