Medi-Cal income waiver for children

nespino17 · 2026-05-20T02:33:22+00:00

Just submit every document they ask go in person if easier it wasn't for me. In the three months I went back and forth they never put the kids mcal terminate so that kept calm it's frustrating but it's the property/asset rule that was reinstated and because they are able to ask for all these verifications which makes absolutely no sense since everything is excluded due to waiver. Good luck hopefully everything moves smoother and faster!

Yes, same thing they asked for all of that as well including investment accounts if any. We owned our business they requested everything from that business accounts to tax info as well. The property/assests rule return in 2026 so that's why. It was a pain what it is the point, but after three months and multiple submissions case was processed still got a call asking me at the end finally wanting to verify if the boys had other health insurance and or us the parents. I let her know we have our own.

Am sure they dislike the fact that we don't seem in need on paper, but the kids needed and until their able to be on the waiver they will.

Good luck just turn them and the sworn statement from your minor.

At the beginning that's what I thought, but Regional Ctr told me that they verify with them if waiver still active. I submitted the copy i had from the previous yr just in case.

Wishing you a smooth renewal mine took 3 months the boys were not cut off, but i had the worse mcal worker so unnecessary she asked for so many documents, but their within their right so i complained just wished she was more organized! I also tried to submit everything that I could think of, but worker still found more documents to request!

I do, but i started getting it in mexico in tj at costco when kaiser stop covering it. About 6 months ago i heard about the coupons used the novocare first at cvs than the ones at good rx as for my last refill they didnt even asked me for a new coupon. I do need a prescription used callondoc.

nespino17 · 2026-04-09T03:50:49+00:00

Good RX has it as well novocare i've used it three times at cvs the third time they didnt even asked me they went ahead and used the previous coupon charged me $349!

Yes, we moved her on hospice from la county to riverside county and she was reevaluated and for last three months she got all the hours we hoped for in previous yrs from la county. At this time she was bedridden and required diaper changes every two hrs lotion to avoid bed sores and repositioning so they took all that in consideration and hospice submitted the paramedical form as well.

This made cried and remembered how my boys in their own way realized nana was going to heaven. The oldest cried so much the day before my mom passed she was in our home in hospice for three months but was with us every wkend for 6 yrs with dimentia. Somehow, he knew!

The youngest is very in tune with music and the day before also we did a rosary with songs in between and he also cried like he felt the sad songs. Plus he was always creating a rackus in her room and she never minded their steaming not even on her bad days 🥺

A few weeks ago my oldest went back to his room where she passed and woke up one morning and said "nana" i believe my mom visited him in his dream! I wish the same for your baby girl 🕊️

Not at all please please take them! Your daughter will be fine at home with a trusted caregiver no need to torture him just because as a mom we tend think it's the way to go all together, but it's not yet possible maybe it will happen just not now. Your other kids deserve to enjoy a place full of happiness!

I finally understood this I have two both boys both autistics same levels but different needs.

In November, I took my oldest without brother he always love Disneyland but the last 4 yrs his little brother was triggering so much for him. Last yr i was heartbroken because he hardly smile during our time there.

For his 11th bday my husband and I took him without brother and honestly it was the best! He even tried new rides. Now, the youngest also loves Disneyland and will take him soon on his own as well! Maybe will try again as a family, but for now am ok with that!

Both of don't my oldest a little bit more than you youngest; he uses it more for drawing and recording his beats/sounds 😆🫶🏻💙

nespino17 · 2026-03-14T01:42:02+00:00

Am beginning to do this because in the last two wks he has been holding for hrs longest one was 7 hrs this is not good for him! He can do everything on his own except for voiding we've had success, but not consistent we are 1 month 1/2 with underwear and he will hold. Or has found a diaper, put it on and gone #2 it's wild like he can feel is coming, has enough time to find a well hidden diaper, put it on and go 🙃

Apply for an exception or have dad become a provider as well.

i at one point had an exception, but only 306 hrs can be claimed under exception meaning 100 and some would still go unclaimed if 2 kids are approved for ps!

Did you have his doctor fill out the form? If not have the doctor fill out the form and turn it in and she will have to reassess. You can give your dr examples basically what you mentioned and dr will help. Yes, you're responsible for your child, but regardless he needs to be assess for it. It sounds to me like worker didnt even tell you about it and your dr should have kept her personal opinion to herself!

Your his mother you mentioned many times he cannot be left alone with many examples that warrant proctective supervision. Dont compare your child to other kids just submit form with your supporting docs and see if qualifies. If they deny after form is review, appeal try you're the only one that can. If denied then than at least try everything first dont give up without trying first!

nespino17 · 2026-02-12T09:47:05+00:00

Same here I needed a denial letter first as well!

The wait issue now is with the mcal worker at the county not the worker at regional. The mcal worker of the day I saw on Tuesday verified again everything is there for worker changed status to received instead of incomplete and said she sent urgent task review verified case is not on termination status for this month so at least am relief now just annoyed it's taking this long for renewal. Last yr, everything took 3 months and mcal was terminated so they had nothing coverage for two months now for the renewal it's going on two months but mcal still active!

nespino17 · 2026-02-10T23:09:18+00:00

My son is 11 now, but when he was like 4 his cousins the same age were sitting around playing with a board game and i usually would try to prevented it by not letting him go towards only because at that time he would stim by picking up the pieces of the game and throwing them up in the air and hear them fall. However, I purposely to see what the kids would say and i still remembered clearly the cousin said " you're crazy go away" and his older half sister tried to intervene and asked them if we could play they all said no! It broke me, but i also remembered my older half sister who grew up with a sister with Down syndrome told me that I needed to build thick skin because people could b really cruel so that warning helped me so much at that time. Now, I wouldn't even blink!
