AB 2036: Medi-Cal: federally qualified health centers and rural health clinics.
What AB 2036 does, verified April 14, 2026
The Medi-Cal program is administered by the state department of health care services to provide health care services to qualified low-income individuals. Federally qualified health centers (FQHCs) and rural health clinics (RHCs) are covered Medi-Cal benefits to the extent that federal financial participation is available. FQHCs and RHCs receive a per-visit prospective payment system (PPS) rate for each visit, which can be established in different ways. This bill allows an FQHC or RHC with multiple PPS rates to elect to consolidate those rates into a single rate to be applied uniformly for all services.
