Which term is used to describe California's Medicaid health care program?

• A. Medi-Cal
• B. Medi-Cal Peer Support Specialist
• C. Natural Supports
• D. County Reciprocity

Answer: (A)

The program name used for California’s Medicaid health care is Medi-Cal. This is the state’s implementation of Medicaid, providing health coverage to low-income residents and funded jointly by state and federal governments, often delivered through managed care plans or traditional fee-for-service.

The other terms describe different ideas rather than the program itself: Medi-Cal Peer Support Specialist refers to a job title for someone who provides peer support within Medi-Cal services; Natural Supports means the informal help from family, friends, and community rather than a formal health program; County Reciprocity isn’t a term used to describe California’s Medicaid program.
