are you really meaning medicaid? which that is when you are on public aid, Medi-cal is a liquid protein drink or I should say it is powdered protein to make your protein drinks with.
Medi-cal is also a medical insurance program for the elderly and poor folk in CA.

This goes to Linda249 ,


Sorry warlock.

This is the only state (California) where the public assistance medical insurance is not called.

Medicaid.   

Lawyer briefs are different also .   Everywhere else in the states it is different.


Finally.

So sorry ,but that is what the last  liquid protein diet drink that I used before I finally decided to do the WLS. what I used is called Medi-Cal and it is a liquid protein drink that I got from my gastro DR. and that is I think the only way you could get it but it was called Medi-Cal anyway   So sorry i did not have any idea that is waht they call a medical service in another state

Bakersfield Bariatrics (Maureen Martin) takes Medi-cal, but not Medicare.  They will tell you that they're getting their Medicare COE approval, but they've been saying that for 2 yrs!    They have a $1000 program fee for ALL patients (that is an extra  cash payment you must pay before surgery)  They're nice, but I needed someone who will take Medicare too.     The Delano Surgical group (Keshishian) will take both medicare and medi-cal, but they have a $3000 extra fee. Good luck to you all. :)
