Added by Stats. 1987, Ch. 1227, Sec. 1. Effective September 27, 1987.
(a)The Legislature finds that ambiguities have arisen regarding payment provisions relating to certain costs incurred in processing Medi-Cal eligibility applications for various fiscal years, and believes the ambiguities should be alleviated by means of legislation clarifying the Legislature’s intent regarding such provisions.
(b)The Legislature recognizes that federal financial participation in the costs of administering the Medi-Cal program is an important element in funding such costs, and desires that federal financial participation be
pursued and obtained whenever possible. With respect to Medi-Cal administration costs, for eligibility determinations, it is not and has not been the Legislature’s intent to preclude federal financial participation which would otherwise be available from the Health Care Financing Administration.
