What is the difference between Covered California and Medi-Cal?

Medi-Cal offers low-cost or free health insurance to eligible Californian residents with limited incomes. Covered California is the state’s health insurance marketplace where Californians can shop for health plans and access financial help if they qualify for it. Health plans available through Medi-Cal and Covered California both offer a similar set of important benefits, called essential health benefits. You can apply for both programs at the same time when you use our single application.
