California paid at least $4 billion over four years in questionable Medi-Cal premiums and claims because it failed to follow up on eligibility discrepancies, according to an audit released Tuesday.
From 2014 through 2017, more than 450,000 people marked as eligible for Medi-Cal in the state’s system were listed as ineligible in county systems, the California auditor’s office said. Half of those discrepancies persisted for more than two years.
