Santa Cruz County Seeks To Grow Indigent Care Program
Santa Cruz County is seeking federal and state approval to expand its indigent health care program in advance of the federal health reform law's Medicaid expansion, which is set to roll out in 2014. The planned expansion of Medi-Cruz -- Santa Cruz County's indigent care program -- would extend coverage to an additional 1,000 low-income residents.
