Welcome to the California Department of Health Care Services 

Medi-Cal Eligibility - Policy and Regulation Center

Welcome to the E-PARC. The site remains a work-in-progress. When completed, we intend to provide comprehensive access to the most up-to-date versions of our All County Welfare Director's Letters (ACWDLs), rules and procedures in one convenient place. To accomplish this, we will need time and resources, but more importantly, input from potential users who can assist us in optimizing both the content and the navigation.  Please read the "About E-PARC" page to understand more about this website.

The Advanced Search tab located above will allow you to search by word, phrase, ACWDL number (xx-xx), or Regulation number (xxxxx.xx) to find ACWDLs or regulations.

For the most recent updates to the E-PARC website, view the newsletter located on the About E-PARC tab above.

Thank you for using this website.  When you are finished exploring the pilot, please take a few minutes to complete an Evaluation Survey.

Note: The information provided on this website is intended to assist the user in finding the most current rules in use for Medi-Cal eligibility determinations, as well as to provide counties with access to procedural rules that have been updated by All County Welfare Directors Letters. To the extent possible, we have also provided outdated or superseded documents that may be of interest.  Where practicable, we have provided cross-references between various ACWDLs and existing regulations or other resources. At this time, the site is not intended to be the official source of information regarding Medi-Cal eligibility rules and procedures, but rather, is provided as a convenience to the user.  As a result, DHCS makes no representations or guarantees as to the completeness or immediate legal accuracy of the information provided.  For the official versions of regulations, please visit the California Code of Regulations site listed and linked on our Resources page.  The external sites provided on our Resources page are governed by the policies of their respective owners and DHCS assumes no responsibility over the content provided.
