There is a sticky thread about this at the top of our forums...http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/CA/a,messageboard/action,replies/board_id,4806/cat_id,4406/topic_id,3461358/

It is my understanding and I am not always correct, but Medicare is government, like Social Security and disability issues.....Medical is a state program....I know my mother who is 84 has Medi Medi which is both.....

Medi-Cal is state medical insurance that you get if you're low income or on Welfare. Medicare is is government/federal medical insurance that you get when you're on Social Security, Social Security Disability or when you hit a certain age (62 or 65?). Hope this helps. =)
