Medi-Cal Health Insurance
Can you tell me if I qualify for Medi-Cal Health insurance in California if I own a house?

Re: Medi-Cal Health Insurance
MediCal / Medicaid is extremely complicated and you really need to consult with an expert 
It is, however, my understanding that your primary home and a car are among the assets that you may continue to own without it affecting your eligibility.

Here are the qualifications for Medi-Cal - a benefit scheme run in California for low income/ in need people:

If you own a house, unless you sell house and your income/assets drop to a certain level, I doubt if you qualify.

Re: Medi-Cal Health Insurance
If you are a fairly healthy adult without any terminal/ongoing major illnesses I seriously doubt it.
I have a friend who has Medi-Cal due to two kidney transplants. She owns a house (well the bank) and a car no problem)
I have two unemployed friends one who needs daily medication, their children qualify but the adults don't.
