Definition: Average percentage of children and youth ages 0-20 enrolled in Medi-Cal per month, by age group (e.g., on average in 2020, 55.9% of children under age 1 in Los Angeles County were enrolled in Medi-Cal each month).
Data Source: California Dept. of Health Care Services, Eligible Individuals Under Age 21 Enrolled in Medi-Cal (Apr. 2021); California Dept. of Finance, Population Estimates and Projections (Jul. 2021).
Footnote: Medi-Cal is California's Medicaid program, which provides health care services for low-income children and adults. The notation S refers to data that have been suppressed because the number of Medi-Cal enrollees in that group was less than 20 fewer than the estimated population, or to prevent disclosure of identity.
