If my wages reduce my Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefit to zero, will I lose Medi-Cal (Medicaid) coverage?
Not necessarily. There are many Social Security employment rules and work incentives that allow you to keep Medi-Cal (Medicaid) even if you no longer continue to receive a SSI benefit. You may be able to continue Medi-Cal (Medicaid) coverage at no cost through SSI’s 1619(b) provisions. The Social Security Administration (SSA) provides these details on Medi-Cal (Medicaid) protection.
