Non-MAGI Linkage
Eligibility for Medi-Cal (MC) must be determined in a specific order known as the MC Hierarchy. Individuals who are not eligible for Mega-Mandatory MC must be evaluated for MAGI MC, and if they are ineligible for MAGI they will be evaluated for Non-MAGI MC Optional Categorical programs.
Exception: If an individual is found eligible for MAGI, they still have the right to request evaluation for Non-MAGI and choose the Non-MAGI aid code if all eligibility criteria are met.
Medically Needy (MN) and Medically Indigent (MI) are the two categories of optional Non-MAGI programs. The next two sections provide information on linkage requirements for each of the programs under these two categories.
