The Trump administration has frozen $867 million in federal Medicaid funding for California as part of a broader crackdown on alleged fraud, renewing debate over the long-term cost of the state's healthcare program. According to healthcare policy experts cited in the report, California's Medi-Cal program—the state's Medicaid system—has become "fiscally unsustainable," pointing in part to the state's expansion of eligibility to undocumented immigrants regardless of age. Today, nearly 15 million Californians receive coverage through Medi-Cal. Annual spending on the program has grown to more than $200 billion, while California's total state budget stands at approximately $351.7 billion, raising questions about the future cost of the program and its impact on taxpayers. #California #Medicaid #MediCal #Trump #Healthcare #GovernmentSpending #Taxpayer #BreakingNews #Politics #News #CaliforniaPolitics #HealthcarePolicy #Budget #Fraud #Economy
