According to state law, counties are supposed to stop accepting older, non-single streamlined applications for Medi-Cal after January 1, 2016. However, DHCS is requiring counties to continue to accept these older applications (including the SAWS 2 PLUS) and request any additional information necessary to make MAGI and non-MAGI determinations as appropriate until any remaining supplies are exhausted. DHCS ACWDL 15-34 (10/28/15).
