Bill	Medi-Cal: dental program.	Existing law provides for the Medi-Cal program, which is administered by the State Department of Health Care Services and under which qualified low-income persons receive health care benefits. The Medi-Cal program is, in part, governed and funded by federal Medicaid program provisions. Existing law provides that certain optional benefits, including, among others, certain adult dental services, are excluded from coverage under the Medi-Cal program. Existing law, beginning May 1, 2014, or the effective date of any necessary federal approvals, whichever is later, provides that only specified adult dental services are a covered Medi-Cal benefit for persons 21 years of age or older.	us/states/ca	California Legislature	20152016	AB 2207	California AB 2207 (20152016)	bill	Medi-Cal: dental program.	enacted	Wood	8	25	8	2016-02-18	2016-09-25	openstates	ocd-bill/7d405c46-d34f-46d5-9adb-15657b32d357	http://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billNavClient.xhtml?bill_id=201520160AB2207	e90568ba85c06966e9f1b030143b72a34771eef5859670b69f2225d311d8e608	2026-07-01	https://data.openstates.org/daily/2026-07-01/public.pgdump	2026-07-06	reported	legislation bill us-ca
